Today, as part of AFW2’s Day of Healing in celebration of Warrior Care Month, various artists who have been inspired by creative expression will showcase their artwork. Artists like TSgt Krystal Waters Howard, will display their art during the Northeast C.A.R.E Event at National Harbor and Joint Base Andrews on November 18th. Her piece represents female veterans. She hopes it 'humanizes the characteristics of a female veteran who often is divided into half human and half hero - saving the world along with herself." Whether it's painting, drawing, crafting, sculpting or digital media, the ability to use any of these forms to create unique pieces of art can feel therapeutic. AFW2 participants explore art, music, comedy and more during the Warrior C.A.R.E Event.
