“Find your network, find your tribe”
Investigation
The Veterans Story Collecting Project was a collaboration between The Fine and Performing Arts Department of the Johnson County Arts and Heritage Center, The Arts Council of Johnson County, JCCC and Midwest Trust Center, and VPL. The project aims to capture the experiences of veterans during their time of military service and their return to civilian life. Through collecting, performing, and witnessing the stories of veterans, actors and audiences can gain a deeper understanding of veterans and their experiences.
The first collaboration happened in spring 2019 and the second in spring 2021.
