Community Partnerships

Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art will be closed Monday, May 13, to prepare for the visit of Antiques Roadshow. We will return to normal hours of operation Wednesday, May 15.

Community Partnerships begin with collaboration and discussion with partners (organizations, groups, and artists) to evaluate and align missions, shared goals, audience needs, and activities.  We seek to consider how we can maintain partnerships with an organization for lasting change.

Partnership opportunities are developed in a variety of ways:

  • Supplying museum resources: Crystal Bridges can offer resources for your team or organization, such as art kits, museum experts to facilitate an activity, venue space, talent with visiting artists, collaboration with exhibitions and programming, and event partnership.
  • Consulting and collaboration opportunities: We seek reciprocal relationships when working with partners to consult or collaborate on partner-led projects and museum projects.
  • Connecting: Crystal Bridges serves as a connector between partners and other people/artists/organizations in the region.
