The students of J. Frank White Academy and Lincoln Memorial University are thrilled to present the 7th Annual Mountain Fiesta in Cumberland Gap, Tennessee.

Specifically, the Mountain Fiesta aims to create a space where our community members can learn dances, practice language, and sample food from countries they’ve never been to, while sharing some of our own uniquely Appalachian products and practices.
Ultimately, this event is a celebration of the richness and uniqueness of Appalachia and Latin America, set in the heart of the Cumberland Gap. It is a chance to appreciate the similarities and differences between our mountains and the mountains of Latin America. The Mountain Fiesta is an inclusive celebration, with no entry fee, plenty of fun, and interesting opportunities for our entire community.
This event is organized and supported based on the understanding that our community is a better place when we celebrate each other together.
