Thank you Main Street for all that you do to support local businesses!"

"What I love about Main Street: I love Girls' Night Out, The Halloween Parade and all the twinkle lights at the holiday. The lights really brighten up town during the darkest days of the year. I also really appreciate everything that Main Street does every time we have a major event that makes life more difficult for the small businesses in town."
"Port Townsend Main Street truly cares and plays an integral part in maintaining the vitality of the Port Townsend community, including but not limited to supporting state-wide initiatives such as the Bricks & Mortar Rehabilitation award which was bestowed upon The Belmont upon recent refurbishment /restoration,"
"What we love about the Port Townsend Main Street Program is how they keep us well informed with what’s happening in town. They always have interesting projects and events, like Girls Nite Out, that make us feel connected to the PT business and greater community. For small businesses that depend on local support, the Main Street Program helps us to stay connected and thrive."
“What I love best about Main Street is that it brings together the community of small businesses owners downtown and uptown so that we can help each other, learn from each other, and support each other. Port Townsend is such a wonderful place to have a business. You feel very welcome and like you are doing it together."
