Things to do in Jackson

Jackson is Mississippi’s capital and largest city, and the center of the state’s government, legal and medical communities. The University of Mississippi Medical Center, the state’s only academic medical center, is one of the largest employers, and Jackson State University, Millsaps College and Belhaven University give the city a strong academic presence. Jackson played a central role in the civil rights movement, a history now told at the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum, and the city has deep musical roots in the blues and gospel, along with the literary legacy of Eudora Welty, who lived here most of her life.
