Art Loan Option
The Art Loan Option is one of the most exciting benefits provided to Corporate Members. DeCordova will install an exhibition of Museum-owned and artist-loaned artwork in Corporate Member offices for the duration of the membership. Upon annual renewal of Corporate Member support, exhibitions are rotated to ensure a continuously stimulating and educational environment.
Corporate Member staff work closely with Corporate Members to assess needs for artwork, determine appropriate locations, and make curatorial recommendations for exhibition content. (Please note that DeCordova does not loan sculptures.) Corporate Member dues include the transportation, professional installation, and insurance of all artwork.
