Corporate Sponsorship | 2023 Gala

On behalf of our staff, Board of Directors, Gala Committee, and all members of our community, we graciously invite you to participate as a Corporate Sponsor to ACG’s 2023 Gala. By joining as a Corporate Sponsor, you are at the forefront of the regional arts movement in supporting Albany Center Gallery to continue to bring “more art everywhere, together!”

This year's annual Gala fundraiser will take place at 7 p.m. on Saturday, November 18, 2023 at Scarlet Knife in Latham. 

For 45+ years, ACG has been promoting and exhibiting art produced by the region’s emerging and established artists as well as engaging, enriching, and inspiring the community to appreciate the importance of art. Thousands of the area’s finest contemporary artists have exhibited at Albany Center Gallery, and many of the artists gain national and international recognition afterwards. Our reach extends beyond the walls of the Gallery, working with the community through public art projects and art programming. Through these pursuits, the Gallery consistently reaches over 50,000 individuals annually.

To ensure your business name appears as a Corporate Sponsor on gala promotional materials, please complete and return THIS Sponsorship Form with payment no later than September 15. The deadline for recognition in the program book is October 14. Corporate Sponsors also will be recognized on ACG’s website and event social media promotion.

Thank you for your valued support. We look forward to welcoming you and your business’s representatives to an exciting evening. We hope you will join us at the "sweetest soiree" of the year.
