Art has the power to change lives.
I'm honored to support Exit12 Dance Company's upcoming Gala at the prestigious DAR Constitution Hall in Washington DC. This isn't just another performance—it's a testament to the healing power of artistic expression for our veterans.
As someone passionate about the intersection of arts and healing, I've seen how dance and movement create pathways for processing trauma that traditional therapies sometimes can't access. Exit12, founded by Marine Corps veteran Román Baca, has pioneered this approach through its powerful mission: "Heal, Educate, Advocate."
The evening will feature:
• Collaborative performances with multiple veteran arts organizations
• Exit12's signature repertoire transforming military experiences into movement
• A powerful demonstration of how arts can bridge the military-civilian divide
What makes this event truly special is the partnership with the Daughters of the American Revolution, bringing together historical patriotism and contemporary veteran advocacy in one of DC's most iconic venues.
If you believe in the power of arts to transform lives, please join us for this extraordinary evening. Together, we can support the vital work being done to empower our military-connected community through creative expression.
Have you experienced the healing power of arts in your own life? I'd love to hear your story in the comments.
