There are veterans and family members of veterans and active duty personnel across the country; artists live everywhere, too. One of our goals is to spread this grassroots movement across the USA. Below is a list of Vet Art Projects already sprouting up. Please contact the one in your area or, if you live somewhere without a contact person yet, and want to find out how you can start a Vet Art Project in your hometown or on your college campus, please e-mail vetartproject@gmail.com.

Mission Statement of the Vet Art Project:

The Vet Art Project creates opportunities for veterans and their family members to work in collaboration with artists from all disciplines to create new art about war for public performance and viewing. The goals of the Vet Art Project are to support our veterans, create stronger voices among our veterans, provide new opportunities for artists, and offer a venue to hear the voices of our veterans and artists and foster discussions about how war affects us all.
