Main Street Murfreesboro is proud to announce its 40th Anniversary Celebration, taking place on Tuesday, March 4, from 4:30 to 6:00 PM at The Walnut House. This special event will honor four decades of dedication to revitalizing Murfreesboro’s historic downtown and recognize the visionaries and leaders who have made the Main Street program a success.

Doug Young Leadership Award

During the evening’s program, Main Street Murfreesboro will present the prestigious Doug Young Downtown Leadership Award to Anne Davis, Executive Director of the Christy Houston Foundation.
