DIAVOLO Dance Theatre in partnership with the Office of Military and Veterans Affairs at Kansas State University will develop and present THE VETERANS PROJECT, a community-engagement program with the goal of bridging the widening gap between veterans and civilians. Through movement workshops, art therapy sessions, creative writing exercises, and open discussions, DIAVOLO will foster veterans’ creative expression, increase veterans’ active arts participation, and enhance the public’s understanding of veteran experiences today. The program will culminate in a custom-choreographed evening concert piece titled S.O.S., which will feature veterans performing alongside DIAVOLO dancers.
