Alex Mejias and Tim Be Told play for children in Uganda

Tomorrow night at Gallery 5, The Freedom In Creation Tour is a concert and art exhibition to benefit the work of Freedom In Creation, an arts-based education program aimed to help war affected children in Northern Uganda.

The group's goal is to raise awareness retgarding the plight of the people caught in the midst of a civil war between the government and Joseph Kony's Lord's Resistance Army, a rebel group that makes extensive use of kidnapping children and making child soldiers. The staple program of the organization is a once-a-week art program for these displaced children, combatants and non-combatants alike.

The event will showcase the work of child artists and will feature performances by singer songwriter Alex Mejias and pop-rock band Tim Be Told.

Freedom In Creation Founder and President Andrew Briggs will also be presenting a short film and speaking on the organization's work in Koro Abili.

This is a good cause. If you're free, go support it.
