Lady Cannon

Artists on Main Street is a community development initiative exploring the intersection of arts and culture, downtown revitalization, and historic preservation by investing in creative placemaking projects. Originally designed and funded by Rethos: Places Reimagined, Springboard for the Arts, and the Bush Foundation, the 2023 program is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a $25,000 grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund, with an additional $10,000 from the City of Northfield’s 1% for the Arts Program. The theme for 2023 was "Meet me at the River" and seven projects were funded through this year's initiative.
