Building Community. Supporting Local.
The Downtown Georgetown Association (DGA) is a 501(c)(6) nonprofit membership business organization dedicated to preserving, promoting, and enhancing the vitality of Downtown Georgetown. We believe a thriving downtown is the heart of a strong community—a place where local businesses prosper, history is celebrated, and people gather to shop, dine, explore, and connect.
Through strategic marketing, signature events, business advocacy, community partnerships, and collaborative programming, we help our members grow their businesses while creating memorable experiences that attract residents and visitors year-round. Together, we are building a vibrant downtown that strengthens our local economy, celebrates Georgetown's unique character, and inspires people to support the businesses that make our community one of a kind.
Join Us in Shaping the Future
As we continue to work towards our goal of a vibrant and historic downtown, we invite you to join us. Whether you are a business owner, a resident, or a visitor, your involvement is crucial to the success of our community. Together, we can preserve and cultivate the charm of Georgetown’s community while promoting a prosperous future.
Partnering for a Vibrant Marketplace To bring this mission to life, the DGA partners with local businesses, residents, and the City of Georgetown. We believe that by working together, we can create a downtown that is not only a premier shopping destination but also a welcoming space where locals and visitors alike can enjoy the essence of Georgetown. Whether you’re shopping at one of our unique boutiques, enjoying a meal at a local eatery, or simply strolling through our historic streets, you’re contributing to the vibrancy and sustainability of our community. Our businesses are the lifeblood of downtown, and we are dedicated to supporting them in every way possible. | Building on Community Spirit Our community is built on a foundation of strong community spirit, where we know each other’s names and stories. We understand that when our community and city thrive, we all benefit. In Georgetown, we show up for each other, collaborate, extend a hand, and cheer each other on. We choose community over competition. This spirit of camaraderie is the heartbeat of our business community - it drives us to promote one another, celebrate our collective successes, and offer support during challenging times. |
Our Vision for Downtown Georgetown Our vision for Downtown Georgetown is to create a safe, vibrant, and historic district where people can play, shop, dine, stay, and conduct business. To realize this vision, we are constantly seeking ways to enhance the downtown experience. This includes organizing premier events that draw people to our downtown district, such as Second Saturday Market Days (March – November), and the Christmas Stroll in December now a three-day event. These free, family-friendly events offer a wonderful opportunity to connect with the community and experience the unique spirit of Georgetown, Texas. | Supporting Our Members At the heart of the DGA’s mission is our dedication to our members. We strive to create an environment that not only supports their businesses but also promotes and generates interest in our community. Our members are more than just business owners—they are the stewards of Georgetown’s history and the architects of its future. By joining the DGA, businesses gain access to a network of support, resources, and opportunities that are designed to help them succeed. We encourage all business owners in the downtown district to become a part of our community to share in our mission, and to help us maintain the historic downtown shopping district as a premier destination for both locals and tourists. |
