All of our businesses are valuable constituents, and we invite you to actively participate in improving the community and commerce of our beautiful downtown. Our primary focus is to draw consumers to the downtown area, specifically in non-peak periods. When you join the Westport Downtown Association as a paying member you not only receive the benefits that are offered to all of our merchants, (downtown beautification and community building events) but also a roster of additional benefits and activations tailored specifically to enhancing your business and building community relations. Additionally, your membership dollars make it possible to continue these initiatives, as well as the ability to create new promotional activities based on your requests and recommendations.
