Board of Directors

The members of the Lebanon Community Arts Council of Indiana are local musicians, teachers, artists, and performers that have joined together to provide and sponsor more culturally significant programs and events in the Lebanon community.  Our community is home to many talented and artistic individuals. The LCAC of Indiana is working to bring these individuals out into our community and help them shine!  This will help our community in several ways, by showcasing the talents of our local residents and bringing new, exciting and artistically inspired programs to our community.
