National Hispanic Heritage Month, celebrated annually from September 15th through October 15th is a time to honor and recognize contributions made by Hispanics in the United States and the diversity of Latin American cultures that make up the Hispanic population in our nation today.
Chattanooga has a large Hispanic population, which presents us with many opportunities to experience the culture. It is time to celebrate Hispanic heritage and its contribution to our country through culture, food, art, music, and community service projects across the United States.
Celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month by supporting local Hispanic and Latino-owned businesses in Chattanooga or tasting delicious Latin food.
