Become a Sponsor

Lisbon Symposium participants inmortalized the city in sketchbooks by
 Canson, Hand Book Journal, Moleskine and Stillman & Birn.

The International Urban Sketching Symposium offers local and international businesses a unique opportunity to reach a global audience of people interested in sketching and drawing.

A Symposium sponsorship is ideal for art-supplies dealers and manufacturers, schools of art, design or architecture, and any type of business interested in supporting our growing international community of urban sketchers and the mission of our nonprofit organization: To Show the World, One Drawing at a Time.

We offer several sponsorship levels (Presenting Sponsor, Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze) that give your company or institution a diversity of options to engage with the participants who will be present in Barcelona next July and with our thousands of fans who'll be following the event through our social media and blogs.

Sponsors may provide art supplies for participants, financial aid to help us cover our expenses or a donation to our scholarship fund. Depending on the level of sponsorship chosen, we will advertise your brand to our global community in a variety of ways.

Please contact Elizabeth Alley, our Sponsor Relations coordinator, at elizabeth@urbansketchers.org to get all the details about every sponsorship level.
