Clarksville, TN – As one of the most diverse cities in America, we get to see a variety of cultural traditions on display throughout the holiday season. We are lucky to have large populations of folks from Germany, Korea, and the Asian-Pacific Islands.
Over the years, their traditions have become ours, and vice versa. By Thanksgiving, we have numerous internationally-inspired markets and other events like this year’s International Thanksgiving Potluck dinner hosted by John and Kyong Dawson.
As the year winds down, we can enjoy everything from ice skating to ice sculpting demonstrations, the beautiful decorations that adorn the streets of downtown, and New Year’s Eve parties all across the city. This year saw possibly Clarksville’s largest-ever NYE celebration at Downtown Commons.
International Thanksgiving Potluck Dinner
An International Thanksgiving Potluck Dinner hosted by Dawson for the Community was held inside Hilldale United Methodist Church’s Fellowship Hall.
Guests were invited to “bring family, friends and a dish, and share in an evening of run and fellowship.”
