Community Café Year 2: The Healing Power of the Arts
Anchorage Concert Association, together with community partners, will continue and expand upon a series of Community Café monthly events that bring together local artists, military veterans, and active-duty service members experiencing symptoms of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and/or post-traumatic stress disorder PTSD, as well as their families and caregivers. These events will allow participants to explore healing through songwriting and music performance. The expanded program will include poetry, spoken word, visual art, and various other art forms based on the participants’ areas of interest. The project aims to expose participants to community arts opportunities they can continue to engage with after they leave the military.
