Hive @ 35 Exhibition Sponsorship

Sponsorships available now for the Hive @ 35 anniversary exhibition of the Charlotte Hornets.

In 1988 the Charlotte Hornets joined the NBA as an expansion team, building upon the legacy created by the Carolina Cougars and the long tradition of a love of basketball in North Carolina. Thirty five years later, the iconic teal and purple team continues to delight fans in the Queen City and beyond.

This exhibition will invite visitors to learn more about the history, the people, and the community that Hornets Basketball has brought to the Piedmont of North Carolina- but we need your support to make it happen!
