VyStar Branch Artwork

The Story Behind the Artwork at VyStar Branches

When you walk into a VyStar Credit Union location, it’s hard to miss the bright, colorful artwork that’s displayed throughout the branch. What you may not realize, however, is that each piece of art tells an important story: the story of VyStar. It’s a visual account of not only how our credit union came to be, but also how we continue to serve our members in the best possible way.

At VyStar, we talk to our employees about these paintings on a regular basis because it reminds them of the high-quality products and services we offer to our members each day. And because we know how important it is for you to be confident in the financial institution where you conduct your financial business, it’s equally important to us that our members understand the meaning behind our artwork as well, because it helps give you a better understanding of who we are as an organization.

We’re very proud of our one-of-a-kind artwork, and we would like to share with you the story behind each of our signature pieces, which will undoubtedly make you see our branches from a new perspective.

illustration of family wrapped in money and american flag behind themTHE FAMILY

This small family, which is wrapped in money, shows our members just how important families are to VyStar. We want to make sure families who are just starting out get the financial help they need to flourish and accomplish their goals. VyStar strives to meet that need by promoting financial education through services like our free Money Makeover program, which has helped hundreds of members and families understand how to manage their money throughout their lifetime.

The American flag in the background shows we’re a very patriotic organization. VyStar Credit Union was originally founded in 1952 as Jax Navy Federal Credit Union to serve civil service and military employees, as well as their families, at Naval Air Station Jacksonville (NAS Jax). Our strong military roots and our patriotism continue to be a part of our credit union’s DNA until this day.

illustration of three people looking out toward the starsTHE SEEKERS

Known as “The Seekers,” this piece of art represents VyStar’s all-volunteer Board of Directors. The man in the middle is named William, or Bill for short, and he represents the dollar bill. Our Board is very active in the operations of VyStar. They are always looking out into the market, into the community and into the future to make sure our credit union has the best products and services for our members at the best rates. No matter what financial services our members ask for—whether it’s free checking, ATM services, debit cards, Internet Banking or Investment Services—the Board of Directors finds the way to make those things a part of our organization. They want to assure their fellow members that VyStar always offers the best value, both now and in the future.

illustration of woman with purse flying over time in the skyPENELOPE

Penelope will always be found behind, or very close to, the teller line in every VyStar branch. We call her Penny for short because, at VyStar, a penny saved is a penny earned. She’s there to remind our employees that time is money, and time is also very important to our members—that’s why she’s depicted flying next to a clock. At VyStar branches, we aim to serve our members in the most expeditious manner possible. We want to make sure each transaction is completed quickly, accurately and efficiently so our members can continue on with their day and get back to what’s most important to them.

illustration of woman taking money off of a treeTHE MONEY TREE

The money tree represents all the lending products we offer at VyStar. We like to think money grows on trees and, depending on credit approval, members can come to pick a money leaf off the tree to get the things they want. In the tree, you’ll see a house, a car and other items, which show that we have loan services for everyone’s needs. VyStar’s VIP Pre-Approved Auto Loan Program has been designed to make borrowing easy.


 

THE THREE MOUNTAINS

illustration of three mountains with different rewardsStanding tall, these three mountains signify the three types of credit cards VyStar offers to qualified members. The mountain in the middle, which is decorated with a palm tree, an airplane and a cruise ship, represents our VISA® Signature Rewards Plus card. This card allows you to build points you can use toward vacations and other exciting items. For those who prefer a simpler credit card experience, the mountain on the left exemplifies our VISA Signature Cash Back card; the one on the right, our Platinum VISA no-frills card. Together, the three mountains symbolize the value of using your credit cards responsibly. When credit cards are used the right way, they can help put you on top, financially speaking—much like the figures on the tops of these mountains.

illustration of four people standing arm in arm in support on the earthPEOPLE HELPING PEOPLE

This painting, which shows several people standing arm-in-arm and supporting one another, is a symbol of our credit union and the credit union movement. Credit unions are financial cooperatives that bring people together to help each other with financial needs. The credit union returns its profits to the members in the form of lower fees and better interest rates. The members of the credit union are its owners; so in essence, the credit union exists as “people helping people.” It takes all our members and employees working together, helping each other, to make VyStar a successful organization.


THE PUZZLE

illustration of three people putting a money puzzle togetherHere, our Business Services Department is represented by three individuals bringing together different pieces of a puzzle. The puzzle pieces symbolize that our Business Services professionals can help business owners put together the financial puzzle in the most appropriate and convenient way possible. Whether you are a small business or a corporation, and whether you need a loan to get your venture started or a deposit account to keep your business running smoothly, VyStar has all the components you need to complete the puzzle and build a successful business.



illustration of a man walking into a computer screenTHE COMPUTER

This image of a gentleman stepping into a computer is there to remind you about the many convenient Internet & Mobile Banking services VyStar offers to our members. When you use these services—either through your computer, phone or tablet—it is almost like stepping right through the screen and into one of our brick-and-mortar branches. Everything is at your fingertips: You can balance your checking account, pay bills, review your statements, keep track of your financial relationships with VyStar and even look at a copy of physical checks you wrote. While our branches and our representatives are here to fulfill your financial needs during business hours, our Internet & Mobile Banking program is also here to help you get things done after-hours or whenever you’re on the go.

illustration of man on a bullBUCK

Buck the bull represents VyStar Investment Services (VIS). Through VIS, you can purchase annuities and mutual funds, get help with a financial or retirement plan, and even use a guided wealth portfolio. We used the image of the bull because the market can be bearish or bullish.

Whenever you see VyStar’s artwork, always remember: We never forget that it’s your money.
