RSVP to Kari Johnson at karij@bgsu.edu.About the EVAC Project Using storytelling and art, the EVAC Project bridges the gap between civilians and veterans by educating the public about life in the military. EVAC curators interview veterans about their experiences, and artists make an edition of prints based on their interpretation of those stories. Participating veterans served from World War II through the post-9/11 period, and in all branches of the military. Excerpts from the interviews are displayed with the art. EVAC provides veterans with a platform to share their stories, allowing a single story to resonate with and impact many.About the Featured Veteran Lauren Pacini is a photographer and author whose work focuses on Cleveland’s urban landscape. He is a Vietnam War veteran and was one of the first participants in the EVAC Project.About the Featured Artist Maggie Denk-Leigh is an Associate Professor and Division Chair for visual arts and crafts at the Cleveland Institute of Art (CIA) in Cleveland, Ohio.
