SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Become a Volunteer­—Our small staff means that volunteer support is essential to our ability to do all that we do. Sitting the gallery during a weekend, participating in an outreach event or assisting with art installation provide the gallery with needed support and the opportunity to engage our community in a meaningful way. Contact Leah Couch to learn more about volunteer opportunities at Second Street.

Become a Second Street Gallery Member ($30 - $1,000)—Member support of the gallery is the lifeblood of our organization. It is members who engage, energize, participate in and benefit from all that Second Street does. Pick up a membership card today or contact Catherine Barber to learn more about supporting the gallery through membership and its benefits.

Become an Exhibition Sponsor (suggested contribution $3,500)—Second Street Gallery’s exhibition programming has been nationally recognized by the Andy Warhol Foundation and locally acknowledged as a leader in presenting contemporary artists and their work to Charlottesville. By sponsoring an individual exhibit, you become part of the special art space that Second Street has created for 35 years. Your generosity means that you will receive recognition in the gallery as a sponsor and other benefits. Contact Rebecca Schoenthal or Catherine Barber to learn more about becoming an individual exhibition sponsor.

Become an Outreach Sponsor (suggested contribution $4,500)—How does Second Street differentiate itself from alternative artspaces in our area and beyond? Through Hands-On Art Workshops, The Public Art Project, Educator Workshops and our well known Young Writers Competition, Second Street is committed to educating our community and promoting the appreciation of contemporary art culture like no other. By sponsoring an outreach event you enable the special connection between artist, educator and student that Second Street has made possible for 35 years. Your generosity means that you will receive recognition at outreach events as well as other benefits. Contact Rebecca Schoenthal or Catherine Barber to learn more about becoming an individual outreach sponsor.

Become a Season Sponsor (suggested contribution $9,500)—Sponsoring SSG’s season means that you are underwriting our entire programming effort from our leading exhibitions to our education based initiatives. Your generosity at this level also means that you or your organization will receive maximum exposure in the gallery, its publications and outreach events as well as other benefits. Contact Rebecca Schoenthal or Catherine Barber to learn more about becoming a season sponsor.
