Dec 12: Arts United 4 Iran @Studio /K, Amsterdam

On Saturday, Dec. 12, United4Iran-NL will host the event Arts United 4 Iran from 16:30 02:00 at Studio K in Amsterdam.

On that day, artists from around the world will come together in solidarity with the Iranian peoples struggle for civil and human rights. The day will be filled with music and performing arts to not only highlight the violations of human rights and institutional violence and discrimination against women, but also to bring awareness and celebrate the Civil Rights Movement in Iran.

Arts United 4 Iran will honor the 61st anniversary of the UN adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, as well as U.N. International Human Rights Day (December 10th). December 12th also marks the six-month anniversary of the June 12th Iranian Presidential election and the peaceful protests that were violently suppressed by the regime.

The event in Amsterdam will feature live music, DJs, discussions, and films, including the Netherlands premier of Austrias selection for the Oscars, For a Moment, Freedom. More details on the program can be found on the website united4iran-nl.org.

Many brave artists in Iran are among those speaking out to demand human rights, and it is up to each and every one of us living in the free world to support them. We ask the media and people to show their support by attending and covering this event. - created at http://animoto.com
