2022 Veteran Arts Showcase 

CALL FOR ARTISTS

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

This year, the Veteran Arts Showcase is returning to the FDR Presidential Library and Museum.  The Showcase was founded on the understanding that the arts are vital to veteran reintegration--for self-expression, recovery from the aftereffects of war, and to reconnect with the community. 

 

The Showcase starts off with an opening and reception on Friday night, November 18th, and continues through Saturday, November 19th and Sunday, November 20th. The Showcase will feature a gallery of visual art and a variety of speakers, performances and workshops over the course of the weekend.  

 

We invite veterans, active-duty service members and their families to join us.  We welcome all crafts and visual art: painting, graphics, sculpture, photography, etc., and speakers: writers, musicians, performers of all kind--to participate in the Showcase.

 

To apply, go to our website, VeteranArtsShowcase.org and fill out the application and follow instructions.

For us, warriors are not what you think of as warriors. The warrior is not someone who fights, because no one has the right to take another life. The warrior, for us, is one who sacrifices themself for the good of others. His task is to take care of the elderly, the defenseless, those who can not provide for themselves, and above all, the children, the future of humanity.
