Become a Sponsor

Our sponsors are a critical piece to our impact. They are the local and global organizations that align with our mission and sustain our organization beyond project-based grant funding. Together, we set an example of how communities and diverse industries can work together to improve and shape spaces for all.

Thank you to our 2024 Annual Sponsors!

Why do our sponsors support us?

According to a survey, regardless of industry, 95% of sponsors choose to support the Center due to “strong value alignment”. Civic design is universal in intent; it reaches people over professions, encouraging us to advocate for changes in communities that represent the identity of those people. By aligning with our organization, our sponsors are taking a stance towards people-first design.

“HASTINGS has proudly sponsored the Civic Design Center for 17 years. With Nashville’s unprecedented growth in that time, the Design Center has always centered the community, bridging the divide between high design and local advocates. The team has been a critical collaborator, co-conspirator, and dedicated champion for improving quality of life for all.”
— David Powell, HASTINGS Principal
