About The Picnic

The Lakeshore Park Picnic is a community event, bringing Knoxville together to experience incredible food and company, all in the stunning setting of Knoxville's premier public park. The goal of the picnic is to raise funds and awareness, but there is no confusing it with a black-tie gala. It just feels like dinner al fresco with friends on a warm summer night in East Tennessee. Picnic attendees will enjoy live music from Chuckwagon, and have the opportunity to bid on a plein air painting of the Park created during the event by artist Robin Rohwer.
