At the Patriot Art Foundation our mission is to serve veterans though the transformative powers of art. Via our volunteer teachers and mentors, our partnership with the VA, and through generous private donations, we are able to change the future wellbeing of many veterans.

Why We Matter:

According to the VA nearly 4 million veterans ages 21-64 report having a disability.
Engaging in the creative arts has proven to improve the perceived physical and psychological health of participants.
Research suggests that art therapy programs, when engaged early, lessen the risk of developing greater PTSD severity later on.
Our programs provide free education and materials to veterans seeking to use art as a pathway to a healthier and more meaningful life.

In 2019, Mary Whyte’s groundbreaking traveling exhibition of 50 watercolors called We the People: Portraits of Veterans in America opened to the public in Charleston, South Carolina. In the first six weeks alone over 22,000 people viewed the collection. The response, especially from veterans, confirmed Whyte’s belief in art’s extraordinary power to communicate and connect. And so, what began as fifty portraits turned into a national mission giving veterans a means of finding whole health through art and self expression.
