2026 Sponsorship Opportunities


Businesses who support Main Street understand that Downtown isn’t just a place- it is our community’s heartbeat. Every storefront, bench, and mural tells a story of resilience, pride, and possibility.


Your donation helps us to restore historic charm, support local businesses, and create a vibrant space where neighbors connect and memories are made.
 
We work with Local, State, and National programs for accreditation and seek grant opportunities for improvement and beautification. We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit whose efforts are made possible by gifts from individuals and families, small business members, and major sponsors.
 
Please consider joining Auburn Main Street's mission is to collaborate with our community to promote, advance, and preserve a vibrant historic downtown- rich in Art and Culture and inviting for all.  Please join us in our continued momentum and implementation of our mission in 2026!
