Downtown Springfield Association

The Downtown Springfield Association’s (DSA) mission is to cultivate and sustain a vibrant business community represented by a balance of retail, professional, service, dining and entertainment entrepreneurs.

We’re passionate about growing downtown by attracting businesses, retaining talent and meeting the needs of our thriving community.

We work with our community partners to produce some of the area’s most iconic events: Artsfest, Taste of SoMo, Cider Days, Rated SGF Film Festival, the Downtown Christmas Parade and.

Our ultimate goal is to ensure downtown remains a great place to live, work and play. That means advocating on behalf of developers’ issues, historic tax credits, safety initiatives and more.
