    How to Support

    Corporate Sponsorship
    Sharjah Art Foundation offers many positive opportunities for organisations to advance their corporate social responsibility programmes in the Middle East and to contribute to the society in which they operate.

    The Sharjah Biennial is one of the UAE’s most internationally recognised cultural events and offers select organisations and individuals a rare and valuable opportunity to be associated with this prestigious occasion and with the vision of HH Sheikh Dr Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the UAE Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah.

    We work closely with sponsors to find the best ways to fulfil their specific objectives which might include CSR, marketing, brand building, audience development, corporate networking and staff incentives.

    Sponsorship opportunities are offered at a range of levels and can be for either specific projects such as an exhibition or event, for a education programme, a publication, or even be directed to supporting our work with artists on residencies or commissions.
