This Block Party follows the success of one held over the summer, commemorating the first anniversary of the opening of the Centers. The party brought together some 3,000 guests who enjoyed live music, activities, food from downtown restaurants and vendors as well as raffles for gift certificates donated by downtown merchants and a $500 VISA gift. Included in these celebrations are some non-profits that have partnered with the centers since their opening in July 2015.
In addition to the fun on November 5th, guests will be able to find out about the humanitarian initiatives supported by Scientologists the world over. These include: drug prevention, immorality, reinforcing human rights and championing mental health rights.
Since their opening, these centers have welcomed some 60,000 visitors and have partnered with over 400 like-minded individuals and organizations that work to improve Tampa Bay
“The last Downtown Block party gave everyone a sense of belonging and inclusiveness, and this is something we see as important to creating a real sense of community,” said Dylan Pires, Community Affairs Director for the Church of Scientology.
