We aim to inspire, uplift, and heal by showcasing the talents of veteran artists, creating a lasting impact on the lives of participants, and contributing to a more inclusive and appreciative society for those who have served our nation. Our mission is to provide support and enlighten the community on the issues surrounding veterans physically, mentally, and emotionally by using art. This festival will help veterans and their family members across the nation learn, realize, and connect with art and its healing power. While celebrating our histories through visual art, photography, sculpture, theatre, poetry, dance, music, comedy & culinary arts. Art relieves stress, enhances problem-solving skills, boosts self-esteem, and provides a sense of accomplishment. Our goal is to provide creative expression to increase brain connectivity, tolerance, and feelings of love, therefore decreasing agitation, aggression, anxiety, and depression in the veteran and veteran family member population.
