The Launch

After Three And A Half Years…!

On 20 June 2024, Of Service fine art publication was launched at the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne in a deeply moving event, hosted by the Shrine, attended by veterans, dignitaries, and the public, including the Victorian State Minister for Veterans. The launch highlighted the profound significance, not only as a tribute to our veterans but as a catalyst for vital conversations about mental health, suicide prevention, and life after service. For communities, Of Service offers a unique opportunity to providing stories that educate, inspire, and foster empathy. Of Service is a tool for social impact and a meaningful resource that will resonate with readers of all ages.

Memories From The Evening

Lara RSL Sub-Branch

On behalf of our participating Veterans, all our other Veterans, families, members and guests, we are truly grateful for all of your passion, dedication, blood, sweat and the many tears that you have poured into this incredible masterpiece! Your support to the Veteran community has been unwavering and you should be immensely proud of your artwork.

What an amazing, emotional, truly powerful night tonight as some of our participating Veterans attended the official launch of ‘Of Service’ by Jenani Therone Studio.

The work that Jenani Therone has done in this artwork is simply breathtaking! Those of us who took part in the project have so much to be grateful for! Jenani, you should be extraordinarily proud of the fine artwork that you have created, just as we are to share our stories with you.
