Van Gogh Museum

We’ve been supporting the world-famous Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam since 2015, and we signed a new partnership in 2023. As a key sponsor of the gallery, our joint mission is to preserve the work of Vincent van Gogh and the art of his time, while making it as accessible and inspirational to as many people as possible.

    The Van Gogh Museum is one of the world’s leading art museums with an outstanding permanent collection and world-class exhibitions. Our renewed partnership focuses on the creation of sustainable content, by creating digital programming around the museum’s wonderful exhibitions.
