Service Project

Setup for "Journeys Onward" Veterans Art Exhibit @ Salmagundi Club

June 25, 2023

10:00 AM - 02:00 PM EDT

New York City Platoon

Event overview

Join TMC NYC as we support up-and-coming artists being celebrated this summer at Manhattan's Salmagundi Club!

Each year, Air Force veteran Omar Columbus and Salmagundi Club's Paul M. Murray collaborate to bring "Journeys Onward" to NYC. This exhibit of the art and accompanying words of military veterans and family members attests to experiences shared by many, and specific to everyone.

For the second year running, TMC NYC will help make this event happen. We need assistance setting up the exhibit, unloading the art, and preparing the display space.

The venue is located on 5th Avenue, between Union Square Park and Washington Square Park, less than a ten-minute walk from the Blue, Orange, Yellow, and Green subway lines.

All are welcome! Coffee, tea, and snacks will be available. If you would like to coordinate your group's or organization's participation as volunteers, or for any other questions, please reach out to Troy Mack (tmack@missioncontinues.org).

Who We Are

The Mission Continues is a national non-profit that empowers veterans to continue serving in our nation’s under-resourced communities, giving veterans the opportunity to keep serving even after the uniform comes off, right here at home. Our programs deploy veterans and volunteers to work alongside nonprofit partners and community leaders to improve educational resources, tackle food insecurity, foster neighborhood identity, and more.  

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.

What is a Service Platoon? 

Service Platoons are your opportunity to engage and connect with veterans and community members while generating community impact in a real and tangible way. Led by veteran volunteer platoon leaders, each platoon works with dedicated community partners and volunteers to provide the manpower and support that they need to help them do their work more effectively. 

We currently have service platoons in more than 40+ cities across the country that are having events at least once a month. Everyone is invited to serve, regardless of veteran status: a service platoon is for you if you have a passion for service.
