NEBRASKA ARTS COUNCIL GRANT SUPPORTS VET-X-PRESS WORKHOP SERIES

NCAG thanks NAC for their support of NCAG’s Vet-X-Press workshop series.

New Century Art Guild’s “Vet-X-Press” (VXP) workshop series, veterans have an opportunity to unburden mental strain in the form of self-expressed artwork created in an environment that promotes healing and relaxation. Participants use different artistic media each session, including visual art, writing, music and acting. All experience levels are welcome, and no previous experience is required. Workshop series are always free to veterans, their family members and support staff

Our primary goal is to use the expressive and healing powers of artmaking with military veterans to ultimately transform their lives through the power of art.

Three Airmen from 55th Wing volunteer to be models for the Nebraska Vietnam Veterans Memorial sculpture.

On January 15th, 2022, after a “call for models” was sent out by the Office of Public Affairs, three airmen from the 55th Wing were selected to volunteer their time and likenesses to be 3D scanned and photographed in Vietnam-era battle uniforms. The poses were used to create life-size bronze sculpture for the centerpiece of the Nebraska Vietnam Veterans Memorial, the “Huey Rescue Scene” which features an actual Huey helicopter. The official opening of the memorial (pending any delays) is set for June 6, 2024. New Century Art Guild, Inc. sponsored the model shoot and is a major sponsor of the completed statuary.

The three participating Airmen are:
