Corporate Engagement

Corporate partners provide essential support to Boston Children’s Museum’s ability to fulfill its mission and ensure accessibility to people of all means. For over 100 years, generous donors have enabled the Museum to become a local and national leader in the museum and education fields. By creating curricula, pioneering interactive learning concepts, and producing one-of-kind exhibits, we work each day to create unique and enlightening experiences for children and their families. With corporate support, the Museum provides transformative experiences for kids, sparking their imaginations, creativity and curiosity. Corporate donors see concrete results of their investment in the Museum every day on the faces of young children as they explore, discover and play. 

Corporate partners can support the Museum in a variety of impactful ways; we encourage you to contact us to learn how your organization might be able to join the Museum in providing critical play experiences for every child.

Volunteers also serve on committees to support the mission of Boston Children’s Museum.

Boston Children’s Museum provides our corporate partners with a unique opportunity for philanthropy and high visibility. Corporate partners can support the Museum in the following ways:

 

PROGRAM SPONSORSHIP

Collaborate with the Museum in providing the life-changing programs and activities offered every day, including those that address literacy, STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math), health and wellness, humanities (music, dance, theater) and global cultures, and the environment.

 

EVENT SPONSORSHIP

Special events fulfill the critical need for resources to support children and families as they access the Museum in person and virtually. Event support recognizes your organization and showcases your commitment to innovation, learning, and creativity for all children.

  • The Wonder Ball — our signature gala to benefit the Museum’s crucial access programs, ensuring that children at home, in the Museum, and across the globe continue to grow their love of learning.
  • Silly Soirée – a children’s ball “by the kids, for the kids” supporting school trips for all students
  • CreatedBy Festival — Massachusetts STEM Week ends with a hands-on festival celebrating the inspirational work of local artists, technologists, innovators, and creative do-ers! The event includes hand-on activities, inspirational demonstrations, and the opportunity to marvel at amazing pieces of art – all in addition to regularly offered Museum exhibits.
  • Spooktacular – Spooky fun awaits the entire family during this after-hours event where the wonder and fun of Boston Children’s Museum combines with trick-or-treating, spooky activities and programs for frightfully safe fun for all.
  • Snowmazing – The Museum transforms into a wintry wonderland with exhibits, costumed characters, snowmaking, sock skating, and Boston’s tallest snowman during this winter spectacular.
  • Lunch & Learn – Our speaker forums take place twice a year and feature experts on issues affecting children and families such as bullying, mindfulness and the moral development of children.  Guests enjoy a boxed lunch during these interactive and informative programs.
 

 EXHIBIT SPONSORSHIP
 
The Museum’s extensive child-centered exhibits focus on science and technology, culture, environmental awareness, health and fitness, empathy and the arts, and often travel far beyond our walls to museums all over the world. Help develop the next generation of minds to support, build and strengthen our greater community.

We believe that all children, regardless of their circumstances, deserve the opportunity to take advantage of the Museum’s unique educational opportunities. It has been demonstrated that early exposure to cultural institutions stimulates a child’s interest in learning and can help deepen understanding of the world.

The Sponsored Visits program brings children from schools and community organizations serving low-income or historically marginalized communities to the Museum.

For additional information on supporting Sponsored Visits, please contact: Corporate@BostonChildrensMuseum.org or call (617) 426-6500 ext. 393.
