With the establishment of the DeKalb Arts Council, the addition of creative hubs like Mama Debbie’s Art Emporium, and the introduction of summer concerts at the new Tucker Town Green, the arts are thriving in Tucker. With fall around the corner, the city offers myriad opportunities to engage in the arts this season. Whether you want to catch a play, enjoy some comedy, or create your own art, there’s something in Tucker for you.
