2020 Sponsorship Opportunities Include:

Memphis Art & Design Week is an award-winning creative festival with a goal of offering 100s of unique day and nighttime events in as many communities as possible.

The audacious goal to be the premiere Art & Design Week that highlights underestimated local and national artists wouldn’t be a success without the support of partners and collaborations from the neighborhood, region, and beyond. It would not be a success without the support of the 130+ partners and collaborators at the statewide, regional, and local levels.

Produced by the nonprofit 3RDSPACE, the festival is designed to spotlight how accessible and affordable creativity is to everyone
