Get Involved

As a 501(c)3 non-profit, Sterling Main Street is an organization that works to promote a growing, thriving and prosperous business community in Sterling’s downtown district, with the goal of achieving a responsible balance between historic preservation and economic development. As a volunteer-driven organization, we invite all businesses, organizations and residents to get involved as we continue to improve the heart and soul of our city. Sterling Main Street was established in 1999, and received our state and national Main Street® program accreditation in 2009.

Since Sterling Main Street is a community project, you don’t have to be located in or work in the downtown area to be a part of it. The downtown is everyone’s neighborhood, and a vibrant downtown sends an important message about our community pride.

Your contributions, both financial and in donating your time, help support Sterling Main Street’s ongoing revitalization efforts within the downtown. They help us continue to provide the community with events such as Movies at Grandon, Seasonal Sights & Sounds, Hot Dog Day, and more. Sterling Main Street is very proud to state that all financial contributions are reinvested in the community and are not used for its administrative expenses. Please join us as we continue on our journey to revitalize downtown Sterling.
