At Milledgeville Main Street, the mission is clear: to preserve the beauty and history of downtown while encouraging economic growth and creating a space where locals and visitors feel truly connected.
Backed by the Georgia Main Street Program and rooted in the national Main Street Initiative, the Milledgeville team is all about community self-reliance, local empowerment, and highlighting what makes our downtown unique—whether that’s our beautiful historic architecture, walkable streets, or the warmth of locally owned businesses.
