Every Saturday, join the Anti-Discrimination Movement (AADM), a UUFA 2021-22 Justice Partner, at the Justice Center for a FREE art class! Paint to soothing music and discuss local issues with members of AADM. Open to painters of all levels! The Justice Center & Bookstore is located on the first floor of the Georgia Square Mall across from Belk’s.
This organization exists to illuminate the rich and diverse histories of African Americans in Athens, Georgia, and surrounding communities to ignite a steadfast commitment to justice and truth-telling, and to inspire youth to become architects of a fair and inclusive future.

Please continue to bring non-perishable food items to Fellowship Hall’s wicker baskets. While all CANtributions are appreciated, in July the Athens Area Emergency Food Bank is especially in need of pork and beans, salty snack foods, and ramen noodles. To give by credit card, visit uuathensga.org/give and look for “Charitable Giving.” To give by check, make the check to UUFA and put “CANtributions 1-8016” in the memo line. To learn more, contact justice@uuathensga.org. If you are experiencing food insecurity or know someone in our UUFA community who is, please contact Rev. Pippin (revpippin@uuathensga.org).
All are welcome to attend the next meeting of the Athens Immigrant Rights Coalition on July 17 from 5:30 to 7 pm at the Oconee Street United Methodist Church. For more information contact justice@uuathensga.org.
