Patton Veterans Project Film Screening | June 13 | 6 p.m. | Welcome Center| Greeley Campus
The Patton Veterans Project (PVP) is hosting a community screening to premiere several short films created by area veterans at its film workshop at Aims in May. Servicemen and women worked together at the workshops to make short films about meaningful service experiences. The free screening, which is open to all, will be followed by a meet-and-greet reception for the veterans and guests. Light snacks and beverages will be served.
Led by Benjamin Patton (grandson of WWII’s General George S. Patton) and a team of professional film instructors, PVP’s three-day “I Was There Film Workshop” helped veterans learn a new skill while working with fellow vets. These short films help their families and community members connect and better understand one another.
