Join us for this exciting opportunity to view film work by veteran Aims students and other veterans in the greater Aims community. The Patton Veteran Film Project is a film-based workshop that invites professionals in the film industry to work with local military veterans in an intensive three-day workshop. The project uses collaborative filmmaking as a therapeutic pathway for veterans coping with post-traumatic and other service-related stress. Participation in the project has been shown to validate veterans' service accomplishments, reduce social isolation, and strengthen family, community and professional bonds.
