The National Veterans Memorial and Museum (NVMM) will host Portraits of Courage: A Commander in Chief’s Tribute to America’s Warriors, a collection of original paintings by former President George W. Bush. The exhibition opens to the public on August 8, 2026.

The exhibition features more than 60 portraits of post-9/11 service members and Veterans, each one hand painted by President Bush and paired with a personal story of service, sacrifice, and resilience written by the former president.

The NVMM is open Thursday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Sundays, 10:15 am- Yoga, 11:15 am- Mat Pilates, led by 614FitClub on the south end of Dorrian Green.

Flash fiction may be small, but it’s huge in the writing world (and hugely fun to write). Whether you want to get a taste of this genre or you’re already a flash writer looking to stimulate new ideas, this workshop is the place to get those tiny pieces on the page. We’ll use both prompts and analysis of readings to spark multiple flash pieces. Then, we’ll give some on-the-spot feedback (only if you want to read—sharing is totally optional). Participants can expect to leave with multiple drafts, a better sense of the various styles flash fiction can take, and resources on where to read and submit flash. Carve out writing time to draft some small-but-mighty pieces!

Mondays, 6:15 p.m.: Mat Pilates, 7:15 p.m.: Yoga by 614FitClub at Scioto Mile Fountain.

Thursdays in June, 6:15 p.m. and 7:15 p.m.: More info to come!
