Sponsorship
In 2023, the DHI team was committed to revamping our signature events so that they continued to draw crowds of patrons that help support downtown establishments. Because of the improvements we made, attendance increased significantly at each event. DHI is excited to continue bringing impactful events to downtown in 2024, and we would love your partnership as we do so. Event sponsorship is one way to become involved with our organization and help leave a positive mark on the community.
Annual Meeting
Downtown Huntsville, Inc. hosts its Annual Meeting at the beginning of each year to reflect on the past year’s accomplishments and to recognize important businesses and projects in downtown. The program features various presentations, guest speakers, and an award ceremony for the Downtown Awards.
Downtown Art Walks
Downtown Art Walks are events designed to showcase Huntsville’s creative and maker industry. Each event provides an opportunity for local artisans to bring their products to market with minimal expense and commitment. In addition, Art Walks provide an inclusive opportunity for people to gather and enjoy downtown.
