Become an Art Sponsor

Support the Arts in Gainesville

Show your support for the arts in Alachua County by becoming an Art Sponsor at the 41st Annual Downtown Festival & Art Show.  As an Art Sponsor, you can award a ribbon to your favorite artist at the festival by purchasing one of their pieces. Sign up to be an art sponsor below by pledging to spend a minimum of $50 on any piece of art at the 2022 festival.

Your pledge to purchase artwork at the festival generates enthusiasm among the artists and helps attract some of the best artists in the nation to Gainesville. You can purchase exquisite art for yourself, a family member, your business or even give the gift of art to a valued friend or client.

Art Sponsors have the opportunity to choose their favorite artwork from a wide variety of original pieces. Once an Art Sponsor selects their favorite piece, the artist of that piece proudly displays a ribbon and certificate personalized with the sponsor’s name. Art Sponsors will be recognized throughout the festival during live announcements from the Plaza Stage.

Becoming an Art Sponsor is very easy.  Just complete the Art Sponsor Pledge Form at this link or use the embedded form below to sign up. On November 19th or 20th, join us to choose and purchase your unique piece or art from one of our 200 fine artists!


To request a paper copy of the pledge form, contact the Festival Coordinator at 352-393-8543, or open the attached form below.
