Welcome to the MSHILLS!
The Mississippi Hills National Heritage Area (MHNHA), covers 19 full counties and portions of 11 others in the northeastern part of the Magnolia state.
MHNHA represents a distinctive cultural landscape shaped largely by the dynamic intersection of Appalachian and Delta cultures, an intersection which produced a powerful concentration of nationally-significant cultural icons. Lasting contributions to our country’s musical and literary legacies were forged by Hills natives Elvis Presley, William Faulkner, Tennessee Williams, Howlin’ Wolf, Jerry Lee Lewis, John Grisham and Tammy Wynette.
