What’s Up Downtown

is Alton Main Street’s quarterly information exchange, a casual open forum where the community is brought up to date on developments in Alton’s historic downtown district. Learn the latest news about new & existing businesses, plus news on real estate transactions, details of special events, and receive updates from City officials, the Great Rivers & Routes Tourism Bureau, AltonWorks, and other stakeholders. Attendees also enjoy complimentary refreshments and the opportunity to network with other downtown enthusiasts. The event is open to the public, so join us just to listen or to share news of your own!

If you would like to get involved with the many ways that Alton Main Street volunteers are working to promote the district and improve the quality of life in our community, please contact Executive Director, Sara McGibany, at 618-463-1016 or email [email protected].
