Pellissippi State established "Community Outreach and Involvement" as the College extended a broader invitation to citizens of the Center City, East (urban and rural), Northeast, and South areas of Knoxville through the opening of the Magnolia Avenue Campus.

Community Outreach & Involvement works intentionally to support strong neighborhoods and strengthen individuals of all ages through education.  We often work in partnership with others doing community-building work (schools, neighborhood organizations, Empowerment Zone ZACS, businesses, faith-based organizations, self-sufficiency programs, community agencies, regional initiatives, etc.).

In addition to campus tours, several public events are hosted by the College each semester to encourage public access.  The "Community Room" at the Magnolia Avenue Campus is available for community group reservation on a space-available basis.

For a list of events scheduled this semester, or to inquire about the use of Pellissippi State's "Community Room," please call 329-3100 for more information.
