Nashville, Tennessee, 10th July 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, In honor of Nelson Mandela International Day, local youth will gather at the Church of Scientology in Nashville on Friday, July 18 for a special Human Rights Open House and Artistic Workshop titled “Drawn to Freedom”—a creative event designed to educate, inspire, and empower young people to stand up for justice and equality.
Hosted in partnership with Tennessee United for Human Rights, the event will give youth the opportunity to learn about the life and legacy of Nelson Mandela—his courageous fight against apartheid, his message of peace, and his enduring call for unity and human dignity.
Following a short educational presentation, youth will participate in the “Drawn to Freedom” art workshop, where each child will create a unique art piece symbolizing unity and freedom.
“This event gives young people a voice,” said Julie Brinker, spokesperson for Tennessee United for Human Rights. “It’s a space where they can creatively express what freedom means to them and honor Mandela’s legacy by standing together for unity.”
The event is free and open to youth and families and will take place at the Church of Scientology, located at 1130 8th Ave South, Nashville, TN 37203.
Mandela Day, celebrated each year on July 18—Nelson Mandela’s birthday—calls on people worldwide to take action and make a positive impact in their communities. Organizers of “Drawn to Freedom” hope the event will motivate youth to become advocates for peace, equality, and human rights.
