C&N, a leading financial services company across Pennsylvania and New York, recently donated $15,000 to Main Line Art Center under the Educational Improvement Tax Credit program.

Main Line Art Center is a nonprofit community arts center with a mission to inspire and engage people of all ages, abilities, and economic means in visual art through education, exhibitions, and experiences.

The donation will be used to support Main Line Art Center’s outreach programs, which include more than 20 community partnerships, and its accessible art program that supports people with disabilities. Each program is designed to help solve a community need and ranges from public art programming to in-school residencies and art therapy.

“With the help of C&N, we are able to serve more people in our community who otherwise wouldn’t have access to visual arts education,” said Lisa Getz, Executive Director of Main Line Art Center. “These programs are the cornerstone of our offerings and something the entire staff and all the teaching artists are very passionate about. We are so grateful that our bank is also passionate about supporting our community.”

On hand to present the check and represent C&N were Blair Rush, President of C&N’s Southeast Region, and Bob Kile, Senior Commercial Lending Relationship Manager.

“At C&N, we recognize the positive impact the arts have on children’s development, academic outcomes and mental health,” said Rush. “We are thrilled to support Main Line Art Center in their mission to inspire and encourage children’s creativity and imagination.”
