SUPPORT NCAG AT OMAHA GIVES 2018 CAMPAIGN !
Omaha Gives 2018 campaign starts midnight May 23rd! Please consider supporting our mission to help veterans seeking new careers in the creative arts.
Our primary goal is to use the expressive and healing powers of art making with veterans and their family members, and ultimately transform their lives through the power of art.
In addition to therapeutic art making, NCAG also provides training in art and business-of-art education to motivated military veteran artists in order that they may successfully pursue new careers in the fine arts as artists, teachers, or administrators as they reintegrate into civilian society. NCAG is a Better Business Bureau approved 501c3 charity.

VET-X-PRESS CREATIVITY WORKSHOP #6 — Sands of Normandy
Honor the veterans of D-Day by creating a vivid and temporary “painting” using chalk and colored sand. This centuries-old meditation technique is a great way to reflect and work as a team to create an incredible abstract artwork!

Inspired by a project developed by Iraq War veterans trying to process their experiences through the art of paper making. We will mash writings and other materials into pulp to create sheets of hand-made paper
VET-X-PRESS CREATIVITY WORKSHOP #4 — Adventures in Texture
Use plaster gauze to pre-texture panels as a foundation for adding metallic and colored paint layers; learn how to make the most of texture in acrylic painting.

Visualize your alter-ego with hinged paper masks and acrylic paints. We will use the “transformation masks” of Native Americans of the Northwest Coastline as inspiration for our own kinetic artworks.
