Arts Garage Unveils ‘Veterans’ Visions: In Honor of the Brave’

Exhibition Celebrates Artists Who Are Also Veterans by Honoring Their Courage and Sacrifice Through Their Creative work

DELRAY BEACH, FL, UNITED STATES, April 15, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Arts Garage, a Visual & Performing Arts Venue located in Delray Beach, proudly presents ‘Veterans’ Visions: In Honor of the Brave,’ a new visual arts exhibition honoring military veterans who express their lived experiences through art. The exhibition will be on view in the Marshall Family Foundation Gallery from May 2 through June 30, 2025, with special relevance during Memorial Day (May 26).

Located at 94 NE 2nd Ave, Arts Garage continues its mission of connecting the community to the world through the arts—this time by spotlighting the powerful work of artists who are also veterans. Veterans’ Visions showcases a wide array of artistic styles and mediums, all united by the voices and perspectives of those who have courageously served.
Featured artists include:

Andy Hollimon – Evening Sun Before the Storm
A self-taught 2D oil and acrylic painter, Hollimon transitioned from a military and corporate HR career to a life in the arts and education. Based in Lake Worth, FL, his richly colored works tell stories grounded in the belief that “vision is our portal to all sensory perception.”

Igor Edshteyn – Triangles 4
Known artistically as Edgor, Edshteyn emigrated from Ukraine in the late 1980s. A longtime civil and environmental engineer, he found art as a path through illness. His pieces—blending acrylic, oil, ink, and mixed media—evoke expressionism and surrealism, exploring themes of identity, mortality, and emotion.

Allan Creary – Pop Art Cubism Featuring Marilyn
A Jamaican-born veteran and digital artist, Creary’s colorful, boundary-pushing works span traditional and emerging platforms, including blockchain and app-based art. His pieces have been featured in Black.Art.Matters., FLAVAR, and Palm Beach County’s MOSAIC initiative.

Honor Portraits – Howard Zolin: Army, Specialist E4, Motor Sergeant
Founded by Jerry Whitty and Flora Zolin, Honor Portraits, Inc. is a nonprofit offering free, professional portraits to veterans as a tribute to their service. To date, they’ve captured the stories of more than 750 veterans across the country.

“Veterans’ Visions is a moving tribute to those who have served and now use creativity as a means of reflection, healing, and connection,” said Marjorie Waldo, President & CEO of Arts Garage. “Their art tells stories that deepen our collective understanding of courage, sacrifice, and the human experience.”

The Marshall Family Foundation Gallery at Arts Garage is free and open to the public Tuesday through Saturday, 1 to 5 p.m. and during performance hours.
