PROJECT

The Artists in Millvale Storefronts Project is a pilot project designed to showcase Millvale’s inventiveness while reinvigorating the community. The project will target downtown Millvale by filling vacant storefronts with attention-grabbing art installations to instill community pride, support local merchants and artists, increase foot traffic, and promote a sense of vitality to the Millvale.

The Millvale Borough Development Corporation (MBDC) is dedicated to enhancing Millvale’s economic vitality. MBDC’s programs are responsible for strengthening the diverse Millvale community creating a business climate where companies can grow and prosper, and ensuring a continually high quality of life for all Millvalians.
