Main Street + Creative District = La Junta Rise

La Junta is both a Colorado Main Street and Colorado Creative District leveraging two vital state programs to coalesce funding, data and information, and technical assistance to support La Junta’s growing vibrant downtown and creative industries. Combined these programs are La Junta Rise. 

Main Street La Junta, which is a certified Main Street, has offered support for community-led downtown revitalization since 2018. Main Street helps communities thrive by providing a customizable framework to focus efforts, energy, and resources to create a more vibrant community by helping La Junta identify and leverage opportunities and resources. The reinvestment statistics, reported quarterly, demonstrate the impact of community efforts in tandem with the customizable, accessible, and holistic services from the program. 

The Colorado Creative Districts program certifies communities that contribute to our state’s economy through creativity, culture, and the arts. The program’s goal is to help communities increase jobs, incomes, and investments in creative places.
