Three television specials on creative Tennesseans are set to air starting this month on the new Tennessee Public Broadcasting Service network.
The channel is a joint effort among all six of Tennessee’s PBS stations and broadcasts on each station’s digital channel on Saturday and Sunday.
The television specials, called “Creative License,” are a result of collaboration between the Tennessee Arts Commission and the Renaissance Center in Dickson. The programs will feature a young man from an inner-city Memphis neighborhood who discovers ballet and an artist with Lou Gehrig’s disease who paints with a computer.
The programs will air Saturday, July 31 and Aug. 7.
