- Sponsor an Event! 

We believe a vibrant arts community makes our region a better place to live, work, and do business. When you partner with CAP as an event sponsor, you’re investing in creativity that is visible, accessible, and deeply rooted in the community. Businesses can choose from a variety of sponsorship opportunities such as the Greater Ithaca Art Trail (which also has ad sale opportunities), Ithaca Artist Market, Spring Writes Literary Festival, CAP ArtSpace Gallery, annual Celebration, and CAP-a-Palooza Fundraiser. Find out more here, or contact CAP Executive Director, Megan Barber, to talk about how your business can partner with CAP.
