In addition to supporting existing businesses in the Main Street District and helping to recruit new ones, we also focus on the aesthetic beauty of downtown with a facade grant program, and we sponsor special events that bring residents and visitors to downtown.  Some of our ongoing events include:  Music on Main, Art on Main, Liberty Day 5k Run, Movies at the Park, Monsters on Main, Farm to Table Annual Dinner, & Farmer’s Market (April – October).

Columbiana Main Street is a public-private partnership.  Our program is overseen by an Executive Director, and by a volunteer Board of Directors comprised of local business owners and stakeholders.  The program itself is a 501(c)(6) non-profit, and it is financially supported by the City and by annual memberships made up of businesses and individuals who support our work.
