Promote Your Arts Programming for Military Personnel and Veterans

If your cultural organization provides programming or resources for military personnel, veterans or military families, consider listing these opportunities in the National Initiative for Arts & Health in the Military – National Network Online Directory.

From Americans for the Arts:

"In the Spring of 2010, a group of arts, health, and military leaders began a conversation about the role of the arts in addressing the challenges confronting our military—from pre-deployment to deployment to homecoming. In October 2011, the first National Summit: Arts in Healing for Warriors was held at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center (WRNMMC) to explore the possibilities.  Based on the Summit’s success, the National Initiative for Arts & Health in the Military was established in January 2012 as a collaborative effort to advance the arts in health, healing and healthcare for military servicemembers, veterans, their families and caregivers. "

Submitting your organization's information to the initiative's online directory is completely free, and simply requires that you complete a short online survey. Click here to submit your directory information form. The deadline for submission is Wednesday, September 17.
