The New Century Art Guild hosted the Ambassador of Denmark to the United States on April 4th at the New Century studio in Kimballton, Iowa. Guild members provided the Ambassador, Mr. Lars Gert Lose, with a tour of Kimballton’s Hans Christian Anderson sculpture garden, and concluded the visit with a reception at the New Century art gallery. The Ambassador met with New Century’s President Jim O’Keefe, Art Director Troy Muller, and was gifted a photograph by Veteran Artist and long-time New Century Art Guild member Bert Leaverton. The Ambassador expressed his sincere respect for American veterans, and hopes to collaborate with the New Century Art Guild on international veteran art projects in the near future.

This exhibition is curated and co-sponsored by New Century Art Guild. Reminder: admission is free for past & present members of the military!

New Century Art Guild is a non-profit arts organization co-founded by veterans and artists that was established to transform veterans’ lives through the power of art. The organization offers valuable resources to vets just looking for a little relaxation, to those seeking a new career in the arts. They have the combined experience and resources to assist veterans making the transition into the mindset, or career, that they want.

“Art is a powerful force. It has the ability to tell stories and to express deep emotions; it has the ability to relax the mind and encourage creative problem solving. It is a force perfectly suited to helping veterans and military families in their readjustment to civilian life.”

— Troy J. Muller, NCAG Co-Founder & Instructor
