RevArt and CoBiz Richmond are thrilled to announce a partnership designed to empower local artists and inspire the Richmond community. By merging RevArt’s focus on supporting artists with CoBiz’s mission to uplift under-invested communities, this collaboration will create meaningful opportunities for artists to thrive as entrepreneurs while enriching Richmond’s cultural landscape.

 

“At CoBiz Richmond, we are about sparking GDP-positive outcomes for under-invested communities to thrive, which is why we are super excited to partner with RevArt,” said Wesley Alexander, CEO of CoBiz. “Artists are entrepreneurs, and they too need an ecosystem of support to grow their businesses and expand their reach. CoBiz and RevArt are about providing authentic support that benefits people first—in this case, artists in their entrepreneurial journey.”

 

Patti Pan, CEO of RevArt, highlighted the alignment of both organizations’ missions:

“Richmond is a city rich in culture and creativity. Partnering with CoBiz allows us to build a nurturing environment where artists and professionals can collaborate, grow, and inspire one another. Together, we’re creating a space that celebrates art while equipping artists with the tools they need to succeed as entrepreneurs.”

 

The partnership will bring a variety of initiatives to the Richmond community, including exhibitions, artist talks, and community art events that celebrate creativity and foster collaboration. By connecting artists with valuable resources and opportunities, RevArt and CoBiz aim to redefine how artists are supported as entrepreneurs and creative leaders.
