Our Work
Celebrate
As a regional and historical hub of Northeastern North Carolina, affectionately known as the Inner Banks, we are proud to show off the things that make Williamston a unique and wonderful place to live. And we do it visibly!
Rehabilitate
We partner with downtown property owners to help them look for grants and other sources of funding to renovate their buildings and make them business-ready.
Serve
We are a community organization- we constantly engage Williamston locally as to how every citizen is a part of downtown revitalization. Community is not a spectator sport!
