Evanston Arts & Business Committee Award

First Bank & Trust is honored to have been named by the Evanston Arts Council’s Arts & Business Committee as the recipient of its 2010 Leadership Award. This award is given to an Evanston-based business that has “shown extraordinary support for the arts in Evanston, either financially or through the provision of in-kin services, or both.”

Penny Rotheiser, Chair of the Arts & Business Committee was kind enough to say, “We are happy to be honoring First Bank. In 2010 alone, they supported over 15 local arts organizations by sponsoring concerts and events, featuring cultural photos in their windows, advertising in benefit program books and donating in-kind services.”

We are proud of our continuing efforts as part of our community and look forward to working with the arts organizations in the future.
