You are invited to celebrate with us the beginning of the 6th Annual AVAFEST Art festival for veterans here in the city of Austin, Texas. AVAFEST was created by the founder of the Veterans Suicide Prevention Channel (VSP Channel), Glenn Towery, a Vietnam Combat US NAVY veteran, in July of 2018.AVAFEST is a month long festival series of events that introduces the community to Art exhibits, theater, concerts and many other artistic endeavors and programs for veterans to use the arts to promote healing in for themselves, their families and military personnel. The celebration will be attended by Mayor Kirk Watson who will present the “Veterans Suicide Prevention Channel” and its Board of Directors with a proclamation for creating AVAFEST to continue its work to save and improve the lives of veterans through the creation of the festival and its television broadcasts 24 hours a day.
