Corporate Partnerships

Businesses are vital partners in all our endeavors. Corporate annual support enables our growth as a major educational and cultural attraction, including a planetarium and observatory, that serves more than 200,000 children, area residents and tourists annually. We thank our generous community partners. You are essential! Click here to view our Corporate Partners. In addition to Corporate Partnerships, the museum also offers businesses marketing opportunities through Event Sponsorships.
