Mary Whyte's exhibition We the People - Portraits of Veterans in America is now a virtual tour!

January 7, 2021 | by uscpress

The exhibition opened at the National Veterans Memorial and Museum in Columbus, Ohio in September 2020. The 50-portrait watercolor series—one Veteran portrait from each state—was created to honor our country’s Veterans through art.

“We are excited to share this incredible Veteran art to connect, inspire and educate families -- wherever they may be – during the holidays and beyond,” said retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael Ferriter, president and CEO of the National Veterans Memorial and Museum.

What began as an effort to paint the face of America turned into an all-consuming mission to uphold and honor the hidden heroes of our country. Journey across all 50 state with artist Mary Whyte and learn the story behind this seven year project - in her own words.

Tickets are available through March 21, 2021, at the museum’s website for $7. Museum members can enjoy the tour as a member benefit. Each ticket is available to the viewer(s) for 72 hours after purchase and can be viewed multiple times during the three-day period.
