Project aims to find vets’ inner artist Goal is to get art kits in their hands
By KORIE WILKINS FREE PRESS STAFF WRITER
A Farmington Hills man is set to distribute art kits to disabled veterans through his new nonprofit.
Ray Bakerjian, who served in the U.S. Army from 1974 to 1977, has been an artist all his life — mainly for fun, although he’s sold a few paintings here and there. Looking for a way to help veterans, Bakerjian started volunteering at the John D. Dingell VA Medical Center in Detroit about two years ago. He teaches art to vets there once a month.
Through his volunteer work, Bakerjian said he learned that his students — mostly men in their 50s and 60s — were expressing themselves in different ways through art. The idea for the Wounded Artist Project was born.
“These soldiers have a lot of downtime while they are recovering,” said Bakerjian, 52. “This can help by giving them something to do.”
The Wounded Artist Project, which Bakerjian launched earlier this summer, seeks to put art kits — containing art books, a sketch pad, pencils, erasers and an instructional DVD — into the hands of disabled veterans coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan. He plans to distribute a few dozen kits at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington in the coming months. Bakerjian also hopes to make the kits available to every disabled veteran through donations to his nonprofit organization.
According to Hubert Hess, chief of staff for Michigan’s Veterans Affairs Directorate, there are 69,531 disabled veterans in Michigan, out of about 724,000 veterans.
Each kit costs about $25, Bakerjian said, and he’s looking for donations, grants and other fund-raisers.
Michael Harris, executive director of the Michigan chapter of the Paralyzed Veterans of America, has been assisting Bakerjian with his project.
“This program is a means for a soldier who is holding things within him or herself to express themselves through art,” Harris said.

Detroit - Kresge Grants
Kresge Foundation to Provide $200,000 for Arts and Community Grants in Detroit
The Kresge Foundation of Troy, Michigan, is piloting a new community arts and engagement project in Detroit, Baltimore, Maryland, and St. Louis, Missouri, that encourages residents to use art and culture as a tool to address issues in their communities. The Detroit program is titled Kresge Community Arts. The foundation is investing $200,000 over two years in each city. Grants will range from $2,500 to $10,000. The project is designed to test Kresge's belief that grassroots arts and cultural projects can be an effective tool to unite communities, address pressing social issues, and uplift spirits in difficult times. Individuals and groups are encouraged to apply, including local artists and historians, neighborhood and homeowner associations, youth with parental consent, service agencies, municipal governments, community development corporations, and arts and cultural organizations, among others.
