Jackson has plenty of music to share, from the signature blues event, the Shannon Street Blues & Heritage Festival every June to the Rockabilly Museum. Be sure to get outdoors and visit the Cypress Grove Nature Park, or head inside to cool off in the Carnegie Center for Arts & History.

Nature lovers have plenty to choose from in Southwest Tennessee, starting with Pickwick Landing State Park and the Hatchie National Wildlife Refuge.
