The Pritzker Military Library is proud to host an exhibition of art from the Coast Guard Art Program.  The Coast Guard Art Program (COGAP) uses fine art as an outreach tool for educating diverse audiences about the United States Coast Guard.  Coast Guard art tells the story of the service's missions, heroes and history to the American public.  Coast Guard artists are volunteer, professional artists who donate their time and talents to help COGAP fulfill its missions. Chicago-area artists Jim Brooksher and Sandra Hart are featured in the exhibit.
