American 1 Credit Union donates $10,000 to Adrian Center for the Arts

Founded in 2015, the Adrian Center for the Arts’ mission is to allow the visual arts to flourish and celebrate regionally through passionate artists, arts educations, and creative enrichment for people of all ages and abilities. The ACA advances its mission by offering artist residencies, gallery space, classes, summer activities for the youth, and professional development for art teachers. A special emphasis is placed on accessibility. The ACA strives to ensure all people have access to participate in the arts. Through physical location improvements, generous scholarships, and partnerships, they are able to provide artistic experiences to everyone. The ACA is celebrating their 10th anniversary. 

“We are excited to support the Adrian Center for the Arts and its mission to provide the arts to people of all ages and abilities,” stated Martha Fuerstenau, President/CEO of American 1 Credit Union. “We value the role that arts and humanities play in our communities' enrichment. They foster cultural identity, social cohesion, and well-being.” 

American 1 Credit Union is proud to support this initiative in Lenawee County as we prepare to open our new Adrian branch at 1586 W. Maumee Street in the coming months, coinciding with the celebration of our 75th anniversary in 2025.
