Strategic Partnerships Support Tomorrow’s Change Makers. ArtCenter strategically partners with corporations, foundations, government and non-profit organizations whose missions align with ours, and together we are able to invest in designing a better future.
Engagement with industry has been a critical element of the ArtCenter experience since it was founded in 1930. Our Strategic Partnership Program is designed to establish mutually beneficial relationships with like-minded corporations to drive innovation and create lasting impact.
Partner with ArtCenter and embark on a journey of collaborative success. Together, with your support, we will shape the future together!
To inquire about partnership opportunities, please contact Regina Dowling-Jones, VP Strategic Partnerships and Development Communications.
The Foundation and Government Relations team serves as a catalyst for developing and strengthening relationships between the ArtCenter community and grantmaking organizations.
ArtCenter has strong relationships with foundation and government grantmakers throughout the grantmaking sector, including local, regional, and national foundations; public agencies; and nonprofit partners. Evidence of this can be found throughout our campuses in named spaces (the Ahmanson Auditorium, The Fletcher Jones Foundation classrooms, the Hutto-Patterson Exhibition Hall, and many others), and in the ongoing renovation activities as we expand and enhance our existing educational facilities.
In addition, grants secured help to support faculty and students by funding special projects, courses and curricular development, and are particularly vital for the health of our outreach, community engagement, and vision for access, affordability and inclusion, which enhances our public programming for teens and educators through ArtCenter Extension (ACX), as well as broadens our outreach education in partnership with local K12 schools.
