Featured Event
Join us in cleaning up Historic Downtown Owosso!
Mark your calendars for May 16th, 17th, and 18th, as we come together for three days of community pride and action. It's time to spruce up our beloved downtown and make it shine brighter than ever!
This is a chance to make a real difference in our community and show our love for Owosso. We have two volunteer shifts each day, 8am to 10am and 10am to 12pm, and all ages are welcome to join in!
WE ARE DOWNTOWN OWOSSO.
Visit this historic hometown on the Shiawassee River. We are the place where paths crossed and settlers tamed the frontier. We are where timber became furniture, where rail lines converged, and our connectivity fueled our prosperity. We are the home to one of America’s most popular authors, who in his day, outsold Mark Twain, and left behind his Castle as a monument to writing. We are the home to the inspiration for the Polar Express and our realty fuels the magic of childhood innocence. We are the home to vibrant arts, a reanimated armory, a restored theater, and riverside amphitheater. We are the birthplace of long-living and family-fueled industry, and the launchpad for exciting new businesses. We have local roasted coffee, traditional served teas, popcorn that is still warm, vintage finds, designer threads, and delicious flavors. We are home to the perfect escape. Come discover a day away. Experience the amazing that happens here everyday. Meet the people that add color to our lives. Discover this place we call home, and become a friend in the process. Come explore Downtown Owosso, and feel the warmth of gathering together.
