JACKSON, Tenn. — The Aeneas Block Party got underway Tuesday evening in downtown Jackson, and the weather could not be more perfect for this fifth annual event.

“It’s our 5th annual event, as to say, it’s a benefit for Downtown Development Corporation, does a great work promoting downtown Jackson which is more beautiful and successful than ever,” said Jonathan Harlan, CEO of Aeneas Telephone and Inernet.

The event featured local talent from West Tennessee including live music from Madison and Blair, the Kimberlie Helton Band and Beyond Blame.

Admission to the party was free. However, $1 refreshments were available to help the Jackson Downtown Development Corporation, and donations are accepted.
