Corporate partnership opportunities with the Denver Museum of Nature & Science are available in the following areas:

Premier Sponsors

Each year, the Museum presents temporary exhibitions, IMAX films, and planetarium shows.  These premier attractions draw large audiences and are highly promoted onsite and in the community.  Sponsorship opportunities offer companies the highest level of visibility and the closest association with the Museum.

Education Supporters

Education supporters of the Museum invest in various education programs, including scholarships for low-income students, onsite activities and outreach programs, and teacher professional development initiatives.  Through the generous support of the Museum's corporate education supporters, the Museum reaches more than 300,000 schoolchildren annually with science education curriculum.

Event Sponsors

Annual event sponsorship opportunities are available for companies who seek visibility via high-profile events and/or are interested in entertaining clients or employees.  The Museum's signature gala, Museum After Dark, is held each fall and has sold out every year (750 guests).
