Welcome to Arts at the Lake!

Lake Arts Council

We are dedicated to nurturing the arts at the Lake of the Ozarks. We function as an umbrella over ten independent arts organizations, and in our own right, bring performing groups to the area and sponsor programs that help develop artistic talents in our youth.

Lake of the Ozarks

Lake of the Ozarks is located in mid Missouri about half way and 60+ miles south of a line between St. Louis and Kansas City. The Lake of the Ozarks has a shoreline greater than the State of California, thus leading to the name, “The Midwest Coast”.

Independent Organizations

The Orchestra and Chorale bring their performances to the communities around the Lake. Eldon, Versailles, Laurie, Camdenton, Osage Beach and Lake Ozark are visited twice each year. A favorite venue of the Orchestra is Ha Ha Tonka where the Orchestra sets up against the backdrop of the castle ruins.

Programs of the Lake Arts Council

Children’s Programs

It all starts with our children. The viewer will be pleasantly surprised at the many programs that focus on the cultural development of the youth around the Lake area.

Performing Arts

Annually we bring a symphony orchestra to the Lake for a performance. We also have a Performing Arts Showcase that acquaints our audience with many of our own talented performers around the Lake. We attempt to sponsor a minimum of six events a year.
