Central Coast Voices: Veterans’ Voices-- Building bridges through art

The Veterans’ Voices art initiative provides an opportunity for those who have served in the armed forces to express themselves through the artistic medium. They ask them to share reflections on their lifetimes, playtimes and pastimes.  What has their service meant to them?  What did they take away from their experience through service?   How have they suffered?  How have they healed?  How do they feel?  How can we help? The programs goal is to provide veterans’ a voice through art.

Join Fred Munroe for a special Veteran’s Day program as he speaks with Deprise Brescia, creator and curator for the Veterans Voices Project, Carlota Santa Cruz, co-curator and teaching artist and Lieutenant Colonel Greg Arenas, USA, Retired as they discuss how this unique art initiative is working with veterans and building bridges through art.

Broadcast date: 11/7/19
