Westhaven, TNWesthaven Porchfests![]() Westhaven Porchfest has exceeded our expectations in every regard. Mary and I had a wonderful time listening to great music and seeing some wonderful porches we'll share with you. What's a porchfest you ask? A porchfest is a neighborhood event. Musicians of various genre's play on front porches as neighbors take to the streets, spread blankets or sit on lawn chairs and enjoy an afternoon outdoors. Porchfests create a perfect environment for socializing and maintaining a sense of community.
