Veteran Arts Program
Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art (The Square) has started a Veteran Arts Program that will meet every other Wednesday from 5-7pm at the museum and will be free for all participants. This program is open to any Veterans in Great Falls and surrounding areas.
Instructors specializing in their trained media will lead classes each month, allowing participants to explore many different art mediums throughout. This program will be ongoing, but registration will only open two months at a time. All participants are required to register for each class by calling the museum or registering online.
The Square and Great Falls Vet Center have partnered to provide local Veterans a space for healthy creative expression through multiple art forms, for free. This project is funded in part by the Montana Arts Council, an agency of the State Government, and by the National Endowment for the Arts.
