Make a real difference

We want to continue to help our artists create work of the highest quality, to have opportunities to show and sell their work and to express themselves. To do so, we need your help: we offer a variety of ways your business can get involved with the Nina, and make our community a better place.

Sponsor an Exhibition

Our Stollery Gallery hosts a minimum of twelve juried shows per year, most of which feature artists from our collective. At each exhibition, there is an opportunity for a company to act as the exclusive sponsor, whose support ensures we have the resources to mount the show, publicize it and facilitate visitors. Exhibition sponsors are acknowledged on signage in the gallery as well as on all the marketing materials—which can be customized to meet your publicity goals—enhancing your image with customers, shareholders, employees and the general public.

For art lovers, each exhibition is an exciting opportunity to see original art by an inspiring group of artists who happen to have a developmental disability. For collectors, it is a rare opportunity to find great original work at affordable prices.

Sponsorship Benefits

  • Professional custom signage featuring your company logo in the Stollery Gallery throughout the exhibition (generally 3 to 4 weeks)
  • Opening reception with food and wine for up to 50 guests
  • One piece of original art from a select collection of clay, glass, painting, prints and more
  • Name/logo recognition on promotional materials and media release in advance of the exhibition

Can you do more?

We have many other opportunities for your organization to get involved with the life-changing work of the Nina’s collective of artists with developmental disabilities. In addition to becoming an artist’s patron, you could sponsor a new or existing program, or support our annual fundraiser by buying tickets, a whole table or sponsoring dessert. We can work closely with you to customize a sponsorship program that meets your particular needs.
