The Vet Art Project


Art and Outreach 

to Veterans and the Chicago Community! 


This is a great project for artists who are interested in issues about the war, veterans, community engagement. Plus you get to engage with the Chicago Art Scene AND exhibit your work at the posh Chicago Cultural Center! Sound intriguing? Read on:

The Vet Art Project creates opportunities for veterans to work in collaboration with artists from all disciplines to create new art about war for public performance and viewing.

Matt Ping, new SAIC student and recent Veteran is very active in the project, and they're looking for more artists to participate!
