Patronage is an Economic Policy Card from The Black Death, a scenario in Civilization VI: Gathering Storm.

Strategy[]

Similar to the Aesthetics policy card in the base game, the most glaring problem with Patronage is that it is very difficult to gain a high starting adjacency bonus for the Theater Square. However, if you have a Theater Square with a good starting bonus, this card can help you tremendously race towards the end.

Civilopedia entry[]

The practice of directly supporting another’s work is called patronage. Patronage can be a conspicuous identifier of wealth, or it can be conducted for truly selfless reasons. Many great works of art and literature were done at the behest of wealthy patrons.
