Founded in 2015, the Veterans Art Partnership brings creative expression workshops to the Vet Center to support Alameda County Veterans and their families. The goals of the program are to provide opportunities for Veterans to express themselves in a supportive environment, learn visual art techniques, and engage in community building. The goal of exhibitions like this one is to share the voice and vision of local Veterans to deepen the public understanding of the Veteran experience.
