Veterans Hold Arts Festival

Share

A daylong creative arts festival at the Sepulveda VA Medical Center in North Hills drew the participation of dozens of veterans Wednesday, including four who dropped out of the sky to join the event.

The four-man skydiving crew, all of them veterans, provided the midday entertainment at the event that featured the creativity of local veterans, which ranged from abstract paintings to piano recitals.

Award winners at the event will have a chance to qualify for the National Veterans Creative Arts Festival to be held in November in La Crosse, Wis.

“The work that’s put forth is amazing. It’s all professional work,” said Charles Clemmons, a recreational therapist at the medical center and one of the organizers of the festival.
