What is Ocala Main Street?
Ocala Main Street (OMS) is our community’s program for improving and maintaining the heart of our community. OMS is more than a merchant’s or business association – it is a volunteer driven, nonprofit organization working to revitalize downtown Ocala. Officially designated as one of the first five Main Street communities in Florida in 1985, OMS employs the National Main Street 4-Point Approach to downtown revitalization.
What is the 4-Point Approach?
How does the program operate?
The most successful Main Street programs are those that receive support – both financial and volunteer – from a broad base of community stakeholders.
While Ocala Main Street is part of both the State and National network, we are locally and autonomously run by a Board of Directors. No dues are paid to the state nor national programs, so 100% of the dollars invested into Downtown Ocala stay in Downtown Ocala.
Thank you for your interest in OMS and the future vitality of downtown Ocala as it becomes a stronger core of this beautiful town! Ready to get involved? Please consider partnering with us or volunteer some of your time!
