The Kansas Main Street program, administered by the Kansas Department of Commerce, is a statewide initiative that provides structure, resources, and a network of peer communities to support the health and viability of downtown commercial districts. While the program is rooted in economic development, its work often intersects with the cultural and creative life of a community, as downtowns are frequently the site of galleries, performance spaces, and independent businesses that sustain local artistic practice. This call is not for individual artists but for communities seeking designation and the benefits of affiliation. Designated communities gain access to technical assistance, training, and the collective experience of other Main Street communities across Kansas. The program emphasizes a comprehensive approach to downtown revitalization, typically organized around organization, promotion, design, and economic restructuring. For creative practitioners, the relevance lies in the potential for their work to be part of a broader civic effort to maintain vibrant, walkable, and culturally active downtowns. The application process is open to any Kansas community that meets the program's criteria. There is no fee to apply. The deadline for submission is January 1, 2030. Interested parties are encouraged to contact the Kansas Department of Commerce directly with questions or for assistance in completing the application.
