Nashville Church of Scientology to Host Screening of Historic Phoenix Landmark Grand Opening

Nashville, TN, 7th September 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, The Church of Scientology Nashville announced that it will host a special community screening of Phoenix Rising: Grand Opening of Historic Landmark Where Dianetics & Scientology United. The event will take place this Saturday at the Church of Scientology, located at 1130 8th Avenue South.

The audiovisual presentation showcases the recent dedication of the Osborn Road site in Phoenix, Arizona—newly restored and opened as an official L. Ron Hubbard Landmark Site. It is at this modest midcentury building where Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard completed the work that led to the legendary Unification Congress of 1954, formally bringing together the subjects of Dianetics and Scientology.

“Phoenix holds a central place in the history of Scientology,” said Julie Brinker, Director of Community Affairs of the Nashville Church of Scientology. “This grand opening is more than the restoration of a building—it is the preservation of a turning point in religious history. We are honored to share this with our Nashville community.”

The restoration of the Osborn Road site returns the property to its 1950s glory, complete with authentic midcentury design, rare artifacts, and personal items of L. Ron Hubbard. Visitors to the site in Phoenix now experience the very environment where he wrote Dianetics 55! and set in motion a new chapter in spiritual discovery.

Saturday’s screening will bring that historic celebration to Nashville, offering local Scientologists, community leaders, and guests the opportunity to witness the landmark dedication and hear from heritage experts, civic leaders, and interfaith voices who honored Mr. Hubbard’s contributions.

The event is free and open to the public. Seating is limited, and advance reservations are recommended. For more information or to RSVP, contact the Church of Scientology Nashville at (615) 687-4600.
