Artists in Arms is building a community while increasing visibility and opportunity for creative and artistic Veterans.
When many Veterans transition back into civilian communities, we often have trouble creating the deep connections and friendships we had in the military. For many of us, that loss of camaraderie is the toughest challenge we face because it is the hardest to recapture. For Veterans who pursue artistic careers, hobbies, and trades, that difficulty can be redoubled due to biases around who can be an artist and who Veterans are. Through a series of programs, we are creating a social network for Veterans within the artistic and creative community. We welcome all eras of Veterans and all forms of artistic expression. We are open to collaborations with other Veteran and artistic communities and we welcome family members and those who may not have served but have military connections, to our events.
As a Veteran led organization, we understand the unique challenges and strengths of the military community, and we are always seeking ways to support and serve our siblings in arms.
