Sponsorship Program

A place of life and experiment, Fonderie Darling is a genuine artistic incubator with its thirteen studios, including quality living and production spaces, to the benefit of artists in the early stages of their career.
 
Sponsoring a studio at Fonderie Darling offers artists a sign of trust and allows them to pursue their endeavours in the best possible conditions. It also contributes to giving the profession the status it deserves while promoting the development of Montreal’s exceptional creativity. Fonderie Darling calls upon the generosity of individual sponsors, institutions, collectors and companies to sponsor one or several artists’ studios. The sponsors choose the artist they would like to support financially. Beyond the financial support, this is a unique occasion to create a relationship of trust and complicity with the artist. Sponsors are offered a variety of additional benefits: the gift of an artwork by the artist, tax advantages, access to our spaces, visibility, to name a few.
