From the Wisconsin Veterans Museum:
The Wisconsin Veterans Museum, in partnership with Jessica Gross, a Public Humanities Exchange Scholar with the UW-Madison Center for the Humanities, is launching a graphic novel reading group for veterans. Participants will meet twice a month (evenings) in downtown Madison to discuss readings from war-themed graphic novels.
Through both true-to-life and fictional stories of combat, Jessica hopes to open up a dialogue on war and power among veterans. All veterans are welcome to participate, but combat veterans and those with recent service in Iraq and Afghanistan are encouraged to attend. All books will be provided by a grant received from the UW-Madison Center for the Humanities.
If you are interested in participating, please contact Curator of Education Jennifer Kollath at Jennifer.kollath@dva.wisconsin.gov.
