About Us
The Lakeland Tennessee Arts Council will support artistic forums in a wide range of venues to educate, entertain and enrich the community. In so doing, student and amateur artists will be facilitated to develop their artistic talents to levels that satisfy their own artistic objectives and goals, as well as benefiting the public. The Lakeland Tennessee Arts Council seeks to provide the best in artistry, entertainment and culture. We hope to inform, enchant and inspire the community through the presentation of local groups, individual artists and major art organizations that will nurture and promote the arts.
One of Lakeland’s most anticipated community arts events will return this summer as the Lakeland Arts Council presents the 3rd Annual Night of Enchantment on June 19, 2026, at 7:30 p.m. at Delta Blues Winery.

This year’s featured entertainment will be the Susan Marshall Band, which will bring an energetic night of live music to the scenic winery venue.
