The mission of the Raton Arts & Humanities Council, Inc., (RAHC) is to encourage and strengthen the cultural life of the area, providing residents - whether trained or untrained in the arts - with opportunities for artistic participation, self-expression, education and enjoyment.  The RAHC owns and operates the Old Pass Gallery and Gift Shop located in the former Wells Fargo building (circa 1910) that features well over 200 local and regional artists throughout the year.
