Odyssey Project: Warriors Come Home

Over the course of two years, Josephine Herrick Project in partnership with Harlem Vet Center will present the Odyssey Project which will bring together combat veterans for two three-month participatory photography workshops and ongoing mentoring. Odyssey Project will culminate in a large-scale public exhibition and book of their artwork. The project seeks to use group-based photography workshops and peer mentorship with veterans to explore the journey home from war in a safe space with other veterans who have the same shared experience, and creates a new “unit” dedicated to engaging each other and the world around them in new ways through their camera lenses.
