Chattanooga, Tenn. (May 4, 2018) – Celebrate summer with local entrepreneurs, diverse cultures, regional artists and great food at the Chattanooga Chamber of Commerce DIVERSIFY Marketplace Friday, June 29.

Held at the First Tennessee Pavilion across from Finley Stadium (1826 Reggie White Blvd.) from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the DIVERSIFY Marketplace will be a family-oriented festival celebrating all things inclusive and diverse. Admission to the marketplace is free, and the public is invited to shop and support our regional businesses and nonprofits.

DIVERSIFY gives visitors the opportunity to purchase locally sourced items and unique gifts from vendors. Find everything from natural body products to jewelry, baked goods, clothing, landscaping/services and more from a wide variety of vendors.
