Art of Dissent: Transforming Trauma and a Culture of War

Posted to: 
Chicago

ART OF DISSENT: Come and tour the National Veterans Art Museum's "Intrusive Thoughts" exhibition by Veterans of the Iraq, Afghanistan, and Global War on Terror. Aaron Hughes, a veteran, artist, and Chicago-based IVAW (Iraq Veterans Against the War) organizer and Iris Feliciano, veteran advocate and community organizer, will kick off our conversation about transforming trauma and a culture of war through art. Also, participants will have the opportunity to break down into small groups to explore the question: what is your relationship to war? 

Free and open to the public. Reservations are required. E-mail events@prairie.org or click http://bit.ly/ftGNg5.
