Institutional Giving

Institutional partnerships play a vital role at the Ordway.

The contributions of our partners make it possible to curate and produce richly diverse programming that is of high artistic quality and accessible to all. Through institutional partnerships, we strive to create shared value and enhance the cultural vitality of the region.

Corporate sponsorships

Corporate sponsorships at the Ordway are as unique as the performances on our stages. We work closely with each partner to develop a comprehensive benefits package tailored to meet specific needs.

Benefits include:

• Alignment with a highly respected cultural organization

• Prominent branding in multi-channel marketing

• World-class hospitality offerings

• Invitations to exclusive behind-the-scenes events

• Opportunities to engage large and diverse audiences

The Ordway provides unique opportunities to enhance company visibility, demonstrate commitment to the community, engage prospective clients, and reward employees with unforgettable experiences.

Foundation and government giving

The Ordway is deeply grateful for the support of our foundation and government donors.

And we deeply appreciate the voters of Minnesota’s support of the Clean Water, Land, and Legacy Amendment, which makes it possible for all members in our community to participate in the arts.

The Ordway gratefully recognizes the work of Minnesota Citizens for the Arts in advocating for the Legacy Amendment, as well as for their ongoing efforts to secure funding for the arts in Minnesota.

Corporate grants

The Ordway is also very grateful for support from our corporate foundation partners. We are fortunate to be surrounded by a business community with a strong culture of giving. Together with our foundation partners, the Ordway enhances the region’s cultural vitality, builds community, and ensures that every child can participate in the arts at least once during their school career.
