ANVAM is about to open its inaugural exhibition of veterans art. Titled 'A March to Art: Identity' it explores the theme and importance of individual and collective identity for veterans & families. During this time; Centenary of WWI, peak suicide rates by veterans, battle to save veterans heritage (310 St Kilda Rd), the idea of Identity comes through as a central theme, issue and opportunity all in one. 310 St Kilda Rd represents the one best opportunity we have to allow veterans to understand and shape individual and collective identity. Where else do we have a place run by veterans for 'all' veterans with a focus on healing, culture, stories, history and community? This would be an extraordinary legacy from this generation to the next but also to those generations who have gone before; recognition of the role art has had in their lives and, as a result, in ours. Please find time to visit the exhibition in Melbourne and learn something of veterans identity from a veterans perspective. This will also give you a glimps of the possibility of what could be at 310 St Kilda Rd.
