PROJECTS & PROGRAMS
First Fridays
Each first Friday of the month from April to August downtown businesses extend their hours to embrace the evening atmosphere much like a dense urban center–making downtown the place to be on First Fridays!
First Fridays aim to bring people downtown to enjoy shopping, activities, demonstrations, food, and music in a beautiful historic setting.
Please see our full Calendar of Events for more information.
Adopt-a-Box & Planting Day
Planting Community Pride One Box At A Time is our slogan for this program that has been going strong since 2007. As a program of our Design Committee it encourages community assistance in growing a beautiful vibrant downtown scene.
With over 70 planting opportunities - families, businesses, and organizations adopt a box or pot on the stretch of S. Broadway. The Design Committee sorts through potential flower schemes and provides all the flowers and mulch for planting day which happens the Saturday before Labor Day each year.
On planting day all adoptees are encouraged to plant their box(es) or pot(s) to achieve a unified look for downtown in one mornings time. Planting day has up to 110 volunteers assisting in keeping downtown vibrant and a place people want to be!

Community Market
The Community Market is a key component for a vibrant, diverse and exciting Downtown. It is designed to serve and bring together all segments of our community. It is a positive force in bringing people downtown and was started by Main Street Greenville in 1998.
Join us downtown for the 20-week market from the beginning of June through the middle of October each Saturday from 9 am - 1 pm for our Downtown Greenville Community Market!

Small Business Weekend
​Created by American Express to encourage communities to support small businesses during the busiest shopping weekend of the year. Main Street Greenville has registered as a "Community Champion" for downtown Greenville for the past 5+ years. Each year, we plan a full day of events and promotions to encourage people to shop local.
Downtown Greenville Mural Project
The committee planning Main Street Greenville’s Downtown Greenville Mural Project is working to bring diverse public art to enhance and enliven our downtown landscape. While the unique history and heritage of Greenville is important to this effort, bringing a sense of fun as well as beauty to our streets is also a goal. These public works of art will enhance and enliven our public spaces, and encourage both residents and visitors to explore our downtown and its many attractions. Grants, corporate sponsorships, and public participation are vital to the continuing success of the project which has already produced art created by Greenville High School art students to decorate downtown power boxes, and will soon see artwork adorning downtown walls.
