Who does Stay Tuned for Vets serve?
We welcome all who are military-affiliated — including Veterans, active duty service members, reservists, and National Guard — along with their direct family members. Our programs are designed to support the military community at every stage of service and beyond, fostering connection, creativity, and healing through the arts.

​

Do I need to be related to a military member to participate?
Yes. Participation in our free classes is reserved for military-affiliated individuals and their direct family members (spouse, partner, child, sibling, or parent). This helps us focus our resources on the community we were created to serve.

​

What types of programs do you offer?
Our programs include a wide range of creative outlets such as art classes, music lessons, movement and dance workshops, comedy, creative writing, and more. Offerings may vary based on instructor availability and location.

​

How do I know if there are open spots in a class?
Class sizes are limited and depend on instructor availability. When you register, we’ll confirm your spot or let you know if you’ve been placed on a priority waitlist for the next session.

​

Do I need previous art or music experience to join?
Not at all! Our programs are open to all skill levels. Whether you’re picking up a paintbrush for the first time or have been playing guitar for years, you’ll find a welcoming space to explore your creativity.

​

Why art therapy?
Creative expression can be a powerful tool for mental wellness. Through music, art, writing, and movement, veterans and families can reduce stress, build resilience, and process experiences in meaningful ways.

​

Are classes in-person or virtual?
We offer both. Many of our classes are hosted in Houston, Texas, but we also provide virtual workshops that you can join from anywhere.

​

Is there a cost to participate?
Most classes are free for military-affiliated participants and their direct family members, thanks to generous sponsors and community support. In some cases — such as when art materials or special supplies are required — a small fee may apply, and this will always be clearly indicated in advance.

​

How can I become an instructor or volunteer?
If you have a creative skill to share — whether in music, art, writing, or performance — we’d love to hear from you. You can apply through our website’s instructor interest form.
