Uniting US Veteran and family member artists share works at HONFLEUR GALLERY reflecting personal experiences while honoring art’s therapeutic benefits in finding comfort and peace through creativity and community support. “War” is generally a word used to describe military conflict, “war-type” struggles with depression, trauma, discrimination, and other challenges are not just limited to the military community. We invite you to explore art’s transformational power to inspire creation, express feelings, and process experiences resulting in healing and community building through art!
