The Lakeville Art Festival is one of the best arts festivals in the south metro, and it's held in the Lakeville Area Arts Center in the third weekend of September. There are over a hundred artists featured (juried), and the booths are arranged attractively to catch the passersby's eyes. In addition, there are art exhibits, performances, a Youth Art Tent, wonderful food, and more. It's a good way for the community to come together to support the arts and to have a fun time while doing it.
