The National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design encourages the business community to collaborate with the museum. Our ambition is to increase the number of exhibitions and educational/public events, raising our activities to a qualitatively higher level in order to attract increasing numbers of visitors from Norway and abroad.

If you, or your company are interested in becoming part of The National Museum's sponsorship programme, we would be delighted to tailor an individual programme to suit your requirements!
