Royal Opera House, British Museum, National Gallery and Royal Shakespeare Company express commitment to renewing BP agreements
Some of the country’s biggest arts institutions have expressed a commitment to continue working with BP beyond their current sponsorship deals after the company announced it was ending its 27-year relationship with the Tate.
BP said it was terminating its sponsorship of the Tate, blaming what it called the “extremely challenging business environment” for its decision rather than years of protest against the sponsorship.
