VIV is working in a partnership with Northern Michigan for Veterans, Inc, (Non-Profit). A small group of combat veterans came together in February 2019, in Traverse City, with a mission to empower and support veterans.
We will create projects, arrange events, or simply help a veteran who needs a hand. We take no money, and 100% of what we do, say, and earn will go towards the veterans we serve. We are giving back to the community, by supporting those who have sacrificed so very much for our country.

We feel that we may be heading into the home stretch as far as getting a handle on the Covid virus. Planning for the next art show has to start so far in advance that we feel it is necessary to grab a little bit of optimism and run with it. We invite you to think back on our last art show and not only how much fun it was but what it enabled us to do for our veterans in northern Michigan. Here are some pictures to help you remember the incredible art as well as the tribute to our veterans.

Today’s #VeteranOfTheDay is Navy Veteran Ruth Drover Burnham, who turns 100 years old March 29 and served in the Reserve during World War II.We are starting to seriously plan for the next VIV art show. This is just an example of the kind of art that will be there. This was done by Karen L. Cunningham, a veteran of the U.S. Air Force. If you are a veteran and an artist from Michigan or you know someone who is you are eligible to enter this art show. Just leave a comment and I will get in touch with you. We are seriously looking for artists.
We are actively meeting now and starting to plan another art show although at this time we are not able to set a date due to the ongoing Covid pandemic. Rest assured as information becomes available you will be able to find it here. In the mean time keep on enjoying the art from some of our veterans.
