JACKSON, Tenn. It’s time to answer a thought-provoking question: What is Jackson to you?
Havner’s Frame Shoppe, located in midtown Jackson, is announcing their “What is Jackson to You” Art Competition.
There are two categories for local artists. There is one for ages 16 and under, and one for ages 17 and older.
The owner, Charlie Havner, says they’ve seen a renaissance of pride in the city of Jackson, and they want to be apart of it.
He says the shop has a deep connection to the Hub City, as Havner’s grandfather started the shop in 1977.

The month of May is part of what people in the tourism industry call the “shoulder” season. Snowmobile and ski season is over and summer has yet to begin. To add a little flair to this shoulder month, staff at the Rhinelander Area Chamber of Commerce is introducing Hodag Heritage Days, May 17-21. The week will feature Hodag-themed art contests, scavenger hunts, decoration contests, Hodag food and beverages, culminating with a designation ceremony and a “parked parade.”
Pioneer Park Historical Complex and the Hodag Store are partnering with the chamber on this first-of-its-kind event.
“We really want to give people a reason to celebrate, to appreciate each other and our heritage,” said chamber events and program coordinator Rachel Boehlen. “We are providing a mix of in-person activities and virtual activities along with focusing on our local business partners. We encourage everyone to join in; this event is for you!”
