The Festival of Veterans Arts is a multi-day celebration of contemporary arts and culture led by veterans, created to connect the veteran community and the wider public through powerful, accessible arts experiences. Presented by Australian National Veterans Arts Museum, the festival combines veteran-focused programs with a strong public events offering designed for audiences of all ages.
Public events include a performing artist showcase, a vibrant Family Day with a Colour Parade and participatory Family Gallery, a veterans public arts trail across ³Ô¹ÏÍø, the Sky Writing book launch and artist talk, and the March to Art exhibition launch.
Alongside these public events, the festival also delivers dedicated spaces and programs for current and former-serving ADF members, and families of current and former serving ADF members. The festival invites the broader community to engage with veteran creativity, stories and contemporary culture in welcoming, family-friendly settings.
