The galleries you’ll see to- night will showcase original pieces of art created by veterans, military spouses, and military chil- dren in Homes 4 Families’ My TIME® program. My TIME® stands for My Trauma-Informed Military Enrichment and makes up all of the healing art, drumming, and writing workshops that we offer. These workshops were designed to help military family members address and overcome their trau- mas and is an integral part of these families’ journeys to homeownership, resilience, and long-term success. These workshops were developed by veterans, for veterans, and conducted in peer groups so families build bonds and become neighbors even before moving into their homes. As you enjoy the program this evening, we hope you will think about what our military family members go through, and the importance of arts and expression as healing tools.

Jedd Hughes For Jedd Hughes, a long list of musical giants that jumps generations and artistic bents have long-since counted him as a trusted collabora- tor and inspiration, including Patty Loveless, Rodney Crowell, Emmylou Harris, Buddy Miller, Vince Gill, Ryan Bingham, Sarah Jarosz, the late Guy Clark, Jim Lauderdale, Brandy Clark, and more. He toured as a gui- tarist with Crowell and Harris off and on for years, and became one of Nashville’s most sought-after players. Over the course of the last three years, Hughes has been Vince Gill’s main guitarist. Last year, he opened up 31 Vince Gill shows in honor of the debut of his latest record “WEST”. Hughes is originally from a small town called Quorn 5 hours outside of Adelaide, South Australia. His dream was to move to Nashville and at 19, he landed his first touring gig with Patty Loveless, to have their first show be at The Grand Ol’ Opry. Hughes said: “Yesterday, I played a ses- sion with Emmylou [Harris], Buddy Miller, and Sam Bush, I was just sit- ting in the room, thinking, ‘How the hell did I get from the middle of nowhere to moments like these?’” Alison Haislip From acting to hosting to hanging with ninjas, Alison Haislip has done it all. Most recently, Haislip could be seen recurring in Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fil- lion’s hit SyFy show, CON MAN and on the newest season of NBC’s SUPER- STORE. She was a fan favorite as the spunky sideline reporter on ABC’s sum- mer hit, BATTLEBOTS, and was a series lead in Hulu’s first original series, BATTLEGROUND, produced by Marc Webb. She also currently hosts her own podcast on the Starburns Audio Network, “THE HALF HOUR HAPPY HOUR: LADIES NIGHT”, and just starred in the recently released film, ALLAN THE DOG. While Haislip is well known from her past duties on G4’s ATTACK OF THE SHOW and the first 3 seasons of AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR, she garnered a lot of attention when she took on the innovative role of the first ever on-air Social Media Correspondent on NBC’s hit show THE VOICE during its first sea- son. She has gone on to host numerous shows and events for GSN, Samsung, Sony, Dell, and many, many more. Haislip’s other television credits include Freeform’s STITCHERS, FOX’s BONES, CBS’s NCIS and NCIS:LA, Showtime’s SHAMELESS, TNT’s FRANKLIN & BASH, MTV’s ZACH STONE IS GONNA BE FAMOUS, VH1's I HATE MY 30s and Comedy Central's RENO 911!.
