Our Theatrical Programming brings stories to lifeon stage and beyond. From original plays to community performances, we create space for expression. In 2024 we brought the play "in*Between" by Amy Uptgraft to New York and shared the stories of military spouses with. over 100 attendees.-$23,042
Healing Through Creativity has created and maintained virtual community through workshops and classes that use creativity and expressive arts to provide a space for veteran spouses to tell their stories and find healing in community. Healing Through Creativity has been a lifeline to military spouses who feel isolated and alone as they bear the wounds of war and as they strive to put their families back together after long separations and deployments. Through the year we hosted 8 online workshops with 75 participants that gave them a safe space to share their story.-$4,910
Stories We Tell uses multimedia to tell the stories of veteran's spouses across generations. The team traveled to Georgia in 2024 and recorded interviews with 25 military spouses from the Vietnam war.-$4,704
