Astrophotography Presentation

Empowering Wounded Veterans to Heal
Alpine Public Library 2pm, Saturday, April 26th

George Hamilton of Spear 3 Photography and Kyle Yepsen, Deputy Director of CreatiVets will be offering a presentation on dark skies and the work CreatiVets is doing with astrophotography.

Hamilton is an Austin based photographer and veteran. He says, The goal of Spear 3 is to find a way to bring the incredible tapestry of the world into people’s lives and then use the proceeds from these efforts to assist in charitable causes focusing on Wildlife Conservation and aiding the impoverished around the world. As I work to make an impact, I hope you enjoy the stories and art!”

CreatiVets’ goal is to offer opportunities for relief and healing for the men and women who have sacrificed so much for our country.  They use various forms of art, including songwriting, visual arts, music, and creative writing, to help disabled veterans cope with service-related trauma (i.e., post-traumatic stress, or PTS) by fostering self-expression in a way that allows them to transform their stories of trauma and struggle into an art form that can inspire and motivate continued healing.

The Astrophotography presentation is free and open to the public, no registration is required.
