The Kalispell Downtown Association was established in 2005 as a 501c6 membership organization. The mission of the Kalispell Downtown Association is to promote and improve the downtown area so that it remains a viable contributing component of the Flathead Valley. This means promoting our downtown merchants, making sure our downtown looks clean and inviting and creating a collaborative effort to get the correct mix of businesses that will complement each other and make every business in our downtown successful. All of this takes incredible hard work and financial resources. Visitors and residents will find a quaint place featuring specialty retail shops as well as restaurants and museums, all amid historic architecture.
