The sun was shining, the greens were perfect, and the energy was high as community members gathered for the 4th Annual Athletes for Artists Golf Tournament at the beautiful Lake Nona Golf & Country Club.

This isn’t just any golf outing. Hosted on a championship course designed by Tom Fazio, the tournament brings together athletes, business leaders, arts advocates, and neighbors for one shared purpose: to support local artists across Central Florida.

Proceeds from the tournament go directly toward investing in the people who make our region’s arts and culture scene so vibrant. Funds help fuel new artistic projects, support professional growth, and expand access to creative experiences for families and neighborhoods in Lake, Osceola, Orange, and Seminole counties.

As United Arts President & CEO Jennifer Evins reminded players, “What you’re doing today is making artists thrive. Individual artists benefit from your investment in this tournament.”

Thanks to our players, sponsors, and partners, the impact of this year’s tournament goes beyond the fairways. Together, we are advancing artistic excellence, championing creativity, and ensuring that Central Florida remains a place where emerging and established artists can create, connect, and inspire. A special thanks to presenting sponsors  AdventHealth, Dr. Phillips Charities, and Dream Finders Homes for their generous support in making this impact possible.

Together, we can make art thrive. Donate today
