Corporate Partnerships

Research has shown that the arts are valuable to the community because they:

• Enhance quality of life and add to the economic vitality
• Attract new residents, businesses and tourists
• Improve K-12 academic performance and increase SAT scores
• Provide programs to the under-served

The Mint Museum, in particular, has an outstanding 65+ year history of making the Charlotte region a better place to live, work and learn. The museum has received countless local and national awards for our educational efforts including curriculum development, teacher training, technology, traveling exhibitions, student art exhibitions, publications and outreach.

Corporate members and sponsors provide necessary funding to support annual educational programs such as (partial list below):

• Free tours for approximately 25,000 schoolchildren
• Student art exhibits of more than 500 students works. The Mint Museum of Art is one of the few museums in the country with a permanent exhibit hall for students work.
• The Learning Center which incorporates two classrooms used for hands-on lessons and classes
  at the Mint Museum of Art
• The Education Resource Center which includes hands-on activities, computers and books for
  schoolchildren as well as families
• Family Day Festivals
• Outreach programs
