Delta Culture has been a part of the City of Greenville which is also the county seat of Washington County. Greenville is located in the area of historic cotton plantations and culture known as the Mississippi Delta. It always embraces cultural equality, diversity, inclusion, equity and support for local businesses.
Greenville’s nickname is: “The Heart & Soul of The Delta”. Its motto is: “The Best Food, Shopping, & Entertainment In The South”. African Americans in the Delta developed rich varieties of innovative blues, jazz and Delta Blues music throughout the 20th century.
In the early 21st century, the Mississippi Blues Commission was established to commemorate this music in the state’s history and culture. It has identified sites throughout the Delta as part of the Mississippi Blues Trail with a marker like the one in front of the Southern Whispers Restaurant on Nelson Street.
