We are honored to host one of the women Veteran artists, Laura Taylor, a Navy Veteran who served as an F-14 Jet Mechanic (AD) as well as an F-14 and F-18 Plane Captain. Laura has been creating art since well before her service from 1994-1997. After serving, Taylor continued her education earning a degree in Visual Communications leading her into a Graphic Design career. Taylor's passion for the arts as well as her passion for her country and her family that has also served showcases among her work.

We celebrate women Veterans who courageously defended America, shaped its future and broke barriers for all women.
