Arizona Named One of Four Locations to Host President Bush‘s ‘Portraits of Courage’ Exhibit This Year


The Arizona Historical Society in Partnership with Sandra Day O’Connor Institute will host “Portraits of Courage: A Commander in Chief’s Tribute to America’s Warriors,” an exhibit from the George W. Bush Institute, from October 19 through December 29.
The Arizona Historical Society’s Arizona Heritage Center at Papago Park in Tempe is one of just four venues nationwide selected to host the paintings this year.
The exhibit includes 66 portraits and a four-paneled mural painted by President Bush of 98 service members and veterans who have served since 9/11. Each painting includes a story written by President Bush on the service member depicted.
The exhibit will also include information and resources created by the Bush Institute’s Military Service Initiative that visitors can use to learn how to support post-9/11 service members in their communities.
Admission to the exhibit is included in tickets to the Arizona Heritage Center at Papago Park.
