Clarksville, TN – ArtLink, a local nonprofit based in downtown Clarksville, is partnering with the Montgomery County Veterans Service Commission to host a community “Meet Up” on Tuesday, August 27th, from 2:00pm–4:00pm.
The Meet Up is open to all and designed as an informal way to connect, no appointments or registration required, providing a chance to stop by and meet with experienced Veterans Service Officers (VSOs). In addition to speaking with the VSOs, guests will also have the option to participate in ArtLink’s Veteran’s Art Program workshop for a fee of $36.67.
Each workshop begins with a relaxing dream board and watercolor exercise, followed by a choice of hands-on projects such as 5×7 canvas painting, shrinky dinks, 3″ buttons, metal stamping, and hydro-dipping. The program rotates monthly themes based on the organization’s core values: boldness, humility, respect, creativity, and integrity.
ArtLink is dedicated to igniting passion and building character through creativity, offering programs that support both personal growth and community engagement through the arts. The Montgomery County Veterans Service Organization is staffed by highly experienced Veterans Service Officers (VSOs) with over 30 years of experience and more than 70 years of combined military service. VSOs assist veterans in navigating the complex U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs system to access the benefits they have earned.
Services include support for:
- Service-Connected Disability
- Non-Service Connected Pension
- Survivor & Burial Benefits
- Healthcare Enrollment
- Education Benefits
- Vocational Rehabilitation
- Appeals and More
“We’re excited to create a space where veterans and community members can come together—whether to learn about benefits, connect with resources, or simply relax and get creative,” said Maria Haycraft, Executive Director, at ArtLink.
Join us on August 27th to connect, create, and support those who have served!
