Event & Program Sponsors
Behind every successful event and program is something far more meaningful than a great gathering — it’s impact.
Our sponsors don’t just support events and programs; they help fuel the mission of the North Carolina Maritime Museum. From education programs and preservation efforts to ensuring the Museum remains accessible to all, your partnership directly shapes what we’re able to give back to this community.
As we continue to evolve, we are approaching our events with greater intention. Using a 35/65 framework, we are committed to ensuring that every event and program meaningfully contributes to the Museum — maximizing revenue while thoughtfully managing expenses.
Our goal is simple: make every event count, not just as an experience, but as a driver of mission impact.
That’s where you come in.
Your support allows us to elevate these events beyond moments — turning them into momentum for the Museum’s future.
