Arts in the Armed Forces presents The Bridge Award, established with the sole purpose of recognizing an emerging playwright of exceptional talent within the United States military. The award consists of a $10,000 prize and an AITAF-produced reading of the winning work.

Join Warrior Writers for their first Editing and Revision Workshop Series! This particular workshop series will focus on how to turn a first draft into a final draft, or at least an edited version! These are not generative workshops, as in they will not be giving prompts to write new pieces. Participants will come to the workshop with a piece they have already written, and throughout the three sessions, work with the facilitator to edit and craft it into an elevated piece of work. 

Warrior Writers presents A Memorial Day Commemoration, two days of virtual art, healing, and community from Sunday, May 30, 10am to Monday, May 31, 10pm (Eastern Time).

This Memorial Day Weekend, please join Warrior Writers for two days of wellness, art, and community. They will be offering a full program of free virtual events, including meditation, writing workshops, visual art workshops, performances from veteran artists, and even a cooking lesson! They welcome all veterans, active duty, military family members, artists, allies, and healers who are interested in their mission to engage in artistic expression and support veterans in the discovery of the arts as a transformative tool. This “virtual retreat” will have spaces for creation, reflection, and connection. Learn more about each session in the schedule below.
