Why support the arts?
Commercial companies in Europe are increasingly aware that to invest in your
community is to invest in your business. This is why they are forming
mutually beneficial sponsorship relationships with arts organisations. The
arts offer a unique opportunity to contribute to the creativity of our
society. Supporting a cultural organisation is a wonderful way to contribute
in an important way to the flourishing of cultural life in Cyprus and the
cultural education of its youth.
Arts sponsorship also offers a number of commercial benefits:
- Opportunities for enhancing your company's brand profile and public image
through association with
world class culture events
- It has been proved that classical music listeners and art lovers are
people who really appreciate quality
- Build relationships with this attractive segment of your target audience
by demonstrating your company values excellence, creativity and investing in
the cultural education of society
- Our events offer occasions for entertaining your valued clients at a
variety of music and art events that feature some of the world's leading
artists
- Your personnel will also receive the benefit of sponsorship through staff
discounts at Pharos events.
In these pages you will find information about the various ways your company
can collaborate with the Pharos Arts Foundation and how your contribution is
recognised. We would be delighted to meet you in person and discuss your
requirements in more detail so that your benefits and publicity package will
meet the specific requirements of the company you represent.

Targeted sponsorship
Companies can choose to support a specific concert of particular interest.
Sponsoring specific events offers an attractive opportunity to reach a
specific target audience or associating yourself with the promotion of the
music or art of a country with which your company has important connections.
In addition, it contributes to the education of the next generation of
Cypriots by sponsoring our community
Music Education Programme
If you are interested in these opportunities we would be delighted to
discuss our forthcoming programmes with you and provide detailed accounts
and expenditure estimates of the events that you wish to sponsor. Please
contact our office on for further information.
