St. Cloud Downtown Alliance

At the St. Cloud Downtown Alliance, our mission is to lead a vibrant, thriving downtown by supporting economic growth, enhancing public spaces, and fostering a sense of community. But the success of downtown St. Cloud depends on you—the people who live, work, and invest in our city.

Our board and committees work together on key initiatives that are vital to downtown’s growth and development. With three core pillars guiding our efforts, we’re making a real difference:

  • Business Development: Engaging stakeholders, fundraising, advocating, and marketing to strengthen downtown businesses.
  • Community Development: Ensuring downtown remains safe, clean, and beautiful for all to enjoy.
  • Events: Leading major events like Bold and Bright, Festi-Fall, and the Downtown Art Crawl to draw thousands of visitors, while supporting merchant-led events and advocating for downtown happenings.
