Be a Part of Highland’s Most Colorful Day of the Year!

 

Street Art Fest returns Saturday, Sept. 20 (rain date: Sept. 21), transforming the Highland Square into a vibrant open-air gallery. Dozens of artists will turn the streets into masterpieces, while visitors enjoy art, live music, shopping, food, and fun kids’ activities.

Sponsorship puts your business front and center with a highly engaged local audience. It’s a powerful way to boost visibility, drive traffic, and show your support for the community – all in one day! As one of the Chamber’s two major fundraisers, your investment directly supports year-round programming, small business growth, and community events that make Highland thrive.

Whether you're looking to increase brand awareness, show civic pride, or connect with families and shoppers, we invite you to support the arts and play a visible role in strengthening our community.

 

We have several BRAND NEW sponsorship opportunities designed to meet your needs & goals!!
