The nonprofit CreatiVets is transforming a once-abandoned church in Nashville into a 24-hour arts center for veterans and a community hub. Not only will the new center house the nonprofit's programs, including its songwriting program where veterans work with Nashville songwriters to make music out of their experiences in military service, it will provide a place where veterans can gather any time of day. CreatiVets co-founder Richard Casper, a Purple Heart recipient, says the center will offer creative outlets when PTSD strikes. It's an idea that resonated with actor/philanthropist Gary Sinise, who helped fund the effort through his Gary Sinise Foundation.
