Maria,
At the Ranger museum, the Garrison Gallery was sold with sponsorships by
the exhibit for 5 years. The amounts varied depending on the cost of
installation and expected maintenance of the exhibit, replacement of
interactive components, etc from $3000-12,000. We recognized each
sponsor with their name on the exhibit which was visible but not
obstructive. Each "plaque" made of photographic paper mounted on gold
foil matte board was 5 x 7 (We used 4 x 6 pre-sized photographic
paper.) included the same "This exhibit sponsored by.." and the donors
names and/or logo.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to call me.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] sponsorships length and time
Hello everyone,
I am posting this question for a co-worker. There has been discussion
of selling sponsorships of exhibits/areas of our museum. For example,
John Doe would "sponsor" our hands-on gallery for a period of time for X
amount of dollars. They would get a certificate and a small plaque on
the wall for that year. They would not have control of what went into
the gallery or how the money was spent. He was wondering if anyone had
done this before. If so, how long did the sponsorships last (1 year, 5
years, perpetuity...) and what were the value/prices placed on that
sponsorship. ($500, $1000, $1 million...).
Any answers or advice would be appreciated. Thank you!
