Dancin’ in the streets is sponsored by the Stu­art Main Street organization which is a 501-3 not-for-profit orga­ni­za­tion ded­i­cated to improv­ing the appear­ance and eco­nomic sta­bil­ity of His­toric Down­town Stuart.

Their mis­sion is to cre­ate and mar­ket a pos­i­tive image of His­toric Down­town Stu­art through spe­cial events, retail sales, effec­tive adver­tis­ing and pub­lic rela­tions. They often part­ner with pub­lic, pri­vate sec­tor and com­mu­nity lead­ers to develop and coor­di­nate resources to down­town Stuart’s success.

They spon­sor many pop­u­lar com­mu­nity events, such as:

• Howard Alan Art Show
• Spring Craft Festival
• Star Span­gled Stuart
• Dancin’ In The Streets
• Fall Craft Festival
• Christ­mas on Main Street
• MusicFest Down­town Stuart

Stuart Main Street is part of the Florida Main Street pro­gram, which is admin­is­tered by the National Main Street Cen­ter of the National Trust for His­toric Preser­va­tion. Florida Main Street’s mis­sion is to pro­vide the tools to Florida Main Street cities to revi­tal­ize their his­toric down­town cen­ters. They use the “Main Street 4-Point Approach,” as a blue­print to work with com­mu­nity lead­ers to bring about many small but pos­i­tive improve­ments. This approach includes pro­mo­tion, design, eco­nomic restruc­tur­ing and organization
