Bank of the San Juans has stepped forward to make a significant investment over three years to strengthen the Durango Arts Centers Docent program. In doing so they are an early-adopter of the DACs new Partner in the Arts program where local businesses and individuals identify a DAC program that resonates with their values and supports it over a period of years. Bank of the San Juans has identified small business, the environment, and issues affecting women as primary areas interest to support in this community. However, we also felt strongly that providing arts education to local children helps to develop a generation of community members who not only value arts and culture but the quality of life where they live. These goals support our interests. Through this investment we hope to improve the lives of students and the impact that they have on their communities in the future , said Art Chase, President of Bank of the San Juans.
