The Musée d'Orsay and the Musée de l'Orangerie have an active patronage policy, based on the desire to unite friends, companies, foundations and private individuals who wish to contribute to the work of the two museums. These partners recognize themselves in the values espoused by the Établissement, and are thus committed to culture and its transmission to as many people as possible. Through their support, they forge a special relationship with the Orsay and Orangerie museums.
Involvement of companies and foundations
The Establishment gives companies the opportunity to become involved in diverse, ambitious and innovative projects, with a view to building a long-term relationship. They make a decisive contribution to the development of ambitious projects in our museums: temporary exhibitions, acquisitions and restoration of works of art, support for the strategic development and influence of the establishment in France and abroad, artistic and cultural education programs, or the restoration and transformation of our buildings... This diversity of actions is the expression of the richness of our projects and the dynamism of our museums. It enables each donor to support the establishment in keeping with its values, and to give full meaning to their sponsorship action.
By making a commitment to us, our patrons choose to associate their brand image and values with those of an internationally recognized cultural institution.
A responsible sponsorship policy
Since 2014, the Ministry of Culture has had a Charter for Cultural Patronage, a reference tool that specifies the main legal principles and good practices of patronage. In 2018, the Établissement applied these principles by drawing up its Charter for patronage, sponsorship and other relations with companies, individuals or foundations. It is part of the Corporate Social Responsibility strategy pursued by our establishment, and aims to ensure respect for the ethical values of patronage within our two museums.
