Bullets & Bandaids is a small nonprofit organization based in Wellford, South Carolina, focused on reducing social barriers between veterans and civilians through storytelling and art. The program begins with interviews of veterans from around the world, spanning a wide range of experiences, which civilian writers then translate into narratives that preserve the individuals’ voices. Visual artists interpret these stories to create original artworks, which are presented in immersive exhibitions, published anthologies, and accessible voice-over recordings. The organization aims to foster empathy, healing, and dialogue by honoring veterans’ lived experiences and highlighting civilian perspectives connected to military service. Its work has involved collaboration with notable writers and artists and has been exhibited at institutions such as the Columbia Museum of Art and the Ringling College of Art and Design, with broader interest from major cultural institutions noted. The initiative has grown to include participants from multiple countries and continents, illustrating its global reach within the armed forces and arts communities.
