“Plan Your Visit” to learn more about Jackson and West Tennessee’s sites.

The variety of arts, theater and music may surprise you — but Jackson has a long history as the entertainment center of West Tennessee, and the growing number of students and professionals keep it vibrant. From the Jackson Symphony to concerts at the AMP, from Jackson Theatre Guild community productions to Ballet Arts, Jackson celebrates the arts.

The Jackson Arts Council connects and strengthens the arts, making them accessible, and 50 non-profit arts organizations make up the coalition. Jackson’s public art installations are increasing the murals, sculptures and other mediums throughout the community.
