Veterans’ Day 2015
On November 11, Art Sphere Inc. was happy to begin a mural painting project at the Veterans Multi-Service Center. We are so grateful to the veterans, Travis Manion Foundation and student volunteers for coming together to support the veterans through community service and mural painting. With your help we were able to contribute to the center and to paint a new mural in the center’s recreation lobby and and to paint a new mural in the center’s recreation lobby and participate in clean up activities.
Thank you to all US service men and women on this Veteran’s Day, and we especially enjoyed getting to know our local vets! We are looking forward to continuing to work with you in the future and to painting several murals at the Women’s Veteran Center. Below are photos and quotes submitted by volunteers about their experiences.
