NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE – Tuesday, September 15, 2015 –The Nashville Area Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (NAHCC) will mark the official beginning of Hispanic Heritage Month today with special announcements of key strategic partnerships in education, financial literacy, health & wellness, arts, culture, civic engagement and business.
The NAHCC undertakes the largest most comprehensive and inclusive local and regional recognition** of this important celebration, every year, from September 15 through October 15.
NAHCC's month long program highlights include training sessions and discussion panels on population growth, Hispanic women entrepreneurship trends, Hispanic purchasing power and economic impact, art, music, and networking events.
Belmont University is hosting the NAHCC's official kick-off for Hispanic Heritage Month today, Tuesday, Sep 15, at 5:30 pm at the Frist Room located at the Gordon Inman Center. The program includes a Proclamation by Nashville Mayor Karl Dean, recognizing Hispanic Heritage Month. NAHCC's month-long program schedule and new partnerships will be announced. A reception will follow. Members of the media are invited to attend.
The NAHCC is proud to announce that its partnership with music rights management leader BMI will continue this year, to present a special roundtable event on music industry insights. This is geared to highlight that opportunities are within Latin music’s diverse community in Nashville and beyond, where songwriters and publishers can navigate, network and thrive creatively in the music community.
To close the month-long festivities the NAHCC will host its 11th Annual Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration and Business and Community Excellence Awards*** with the theme, “Hispanic Population Growth and How it Impacts Our Economy“ next on Thursday, October 15, at WALLER on the 27th floor of the Nashville City Center in Nashville.

The observation started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15. It was enacted into law on August 17, 1988, on the approval of Public Law 100-402.
