Your Membership in the Business Art Alliance Makes a Difference!

Strategic philanthropy is at the heart of Gilcrease Museum’s corporate giving program – the Business Art Alliance (BAA). Gilcrease Museum relies on its vital partnership with the corporate community to provide a foundation for operating support for our upcoming exhibits and for our educational programs at the museum and in communities throughout Oklahoma. Your support of BAA makes a bold statement to our community, underscoring the importance of Gilcrease Museum’s contribution to the economic development of Tulsa and to the cultural vitality of our community.

Why Support Business Art Alliance?

We work closely with our BAA members to build mutually beneficial partnerships that add value to our corporate partners’ bottom line while providing them with the opportunity to support their community. Some BAA partners enjoy the increased visibility provided by co-branding with Gilcrease. Others look forward to participating in our members’ only events and leveraging our partnership to entertain their employees, clients, and friends. Whatever your reason for supporting Gilcrease, we invite you to learn more about becoming a BAA member.
