Artlightenment 7th Annual Festival Stays True to Form, Uplifting Artists

While the Artlightenment Festival began as an artist’s dream to help other artists and promote the art of existence, it is now inspiring countless others in the City of Music. The festival is entering its 7th year and organizers are starting early.

Robyn Morshead is founder of the annual art show. An artist and filmmaker herself, she gears the event toward the advancement of every artist and filmmaker who participates or attends.

The festival will run the second weekend of November, from the 12th -14th. As has become custom, there will be a film festival on Thursday and Friday, with the art show formally opening on Saturday at noon, an artist reception will take place Saturday night immediately followed by the awards ceremony and a fashion show.

In previous years, the festival has acknowledged those who best portray the Artlightenment theme of “Art, Artists and the Art of Existence.” Several films entered into the show cover other forms of art, and visual art pieces often reflect the theme as well.


The show takes place in the Church of Scientology and Celebrity Centre in Nashville. Rev. Brian Fesler, Pastor of the church says, “Our church has a special mission to help artists. They are the ones who uplift and create the future of the culture.”

The festival will take place this year November 12 - 14 at the Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre Nashville, 1130 8th Ave S, and all are welcome. Prospective participants may submit their film or artwork online at artlightenment.com or contact Robyn Morshead at robynmorshead@gmail.com.
