Designed for Downtown Communities Across the United States

Beacon Design works with Main Street organizations, downtown development authorities, and revitalization programs across the United States. Together, we create commemorative keepsakes that celebrate the landmarks and history of their downtown districts.

For example, many communities choose historic courthouses, theaters, or town halls for their designs. In addition, ornaments often feature train stations, iconic storefronts, and public squares. These detailed keepsakes give residents and visitors a meaningful way to celebrate the downtown they love.

Popular Main Street Ornament Programs

Main Street organizations often create custom ornament programs to celebrate historic landmarks and promote tourism. In addition, many communities use these keepsakes to support fundraising initiatives that strengthen the downtown district.

Annual Downtown Ornament Series

Many Main Street organizations create an annual ornament program featuring a different historic building or landmark each year. Popular subjects include historic theaters, courthouses, train stations, town halls, and beloved storefronts that reflect the character of the downtown district.

Historic Landmark Ornaments

Historic landmark ornaments celebrate the architecture and places that make a community unique. These designs often feature iconic buildings, public squares, historic bridges, or other recognizable landmarks that residents feel proud of.

Festival & Event Commemoratives

Limited-edition ornaments created for downtown festivals, holiday markets, and seasonal celebrations provide visitors with a meaningful keepsake while supporting community events.

Visitor Center & Local Retail Souvenirs

Downtown ornaments can be sold through visitor centers, local gift shops, and downtown retailers, giving visitors a memorable way to take home a piece of your community.

Turn Community Pride Into Fundraising

Custom Main Street ornaments can become an effective fundraising tool for downtown development programs and revitalization organizations. By creating a commemorative product that celebrates the community’s landmarks and history, Main Street programs can raise funds while strengthening civic pride.

For example, if a downtown program sells 1,000 ornaments at $20 each, the program could generate approximately $20,000 in total sales to support community events, beautification projects, and initiatives that strengthen the downtown district.

Many communities sell ornaments through:

• downtown festivals
• holiday markets
• visitor centers
• local retailers
