Latina Professionals of Chattanooga First Annual Hispanic/Latinx Heritage Month Celebration

Starting September 15, 2022, we're hosting our first annual Hispanic/Latinx Heritage Month events to celebrate the Hispanic/Latinx culture and contributions to our local community and nation. Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from September 15th, coinciding with the date of the independence of several Latin American countries, through October 15th.

This year's Hispanic Heritage Month theme is Unidos: Inclusivity for a Stronger Nation. To demonstrate that together we're a stronger community, the events will be hosted at different venues around Chattanooga, TN, and Dalton, GA every Thursday through October 13th. Each event will feature Latin American music, food, and special guests sharing their stories. All events are free, family-friendly, and open to the public.

We are proud to dedicate this celebration to our city's rich and diverse Latino culture and heritage. And we hope that with this list of events you'll discover something new and connect with others.

We continue to monitor the COVID numbers as we get closer to our events and updates will be provided on our decision to continue hosting these events in person or host them online.
