Veteran's CTA

Criteria

A veteran’s story is one that is filled with experience, hardship, war, training, and memories; but what are the stories of those that support them? This exhibition will tell the stories of not only those who have served their countries but of those who experienced the other side of the coin through their support.

As we honor those who have given their lives through their dedication, service, and continued battle to reintegrate back into society, we must not forget to honor those who stood beside our service members. The life of the military family is a story not all are aware of and has rarely been told. Explore the challenges, heartache, love, support, and beauty of the families and their service men & women. The criteria and themes for submission are the following: 

  • All Mediums accepted
  • Veteran and Active duty artists are encouraged to submit 
  • Military Family members are encouraged to submit 


Themes 
  • Military service
  • Experience of Military Families
  • Hardship
  • Combat 
  • memories of service 
  • Love and support for Military Veterans
