Description

As a Main Street organization, your plate is full. Putting stable businesses in your storefronts, on top of everything else, can seem like a daunting task. But without vibrant businesses, your Main Street will struggle to become a destination. The good news is: you don’t have to do it alone. In this session, drop in on a conversation between a Main Street initiative in Birmingham, Alabama, and Create Birmingham, an arts organization, as they discuss how an unlikely partnership led to more businesses not only in their storefronts, but also across the city—and how you can do the same.
