According to the curator of the show, and US Army Veteran, Chris Van Loan Sr., “This show provides an opportunity for people to see and own art work created by very talented veteran artists. We also want the public to know that the majority of the art will not be military themed, because we veterans have a wide range of talents and interests beyond our service to our country.”
