About

Mission Statement
The mission of First Town Downtown is to position and promote Windsor Center as a premier New England town center that protects and utilizes its proud heritage as the basis for developing vibrant recreational, economic and cultural activity.

Vision statement
Historic Windsor Center, with its classic New England Town Green, is located at the confluence of the Connecticut and Farmington Rivers. Pedestrian friendly, it is an inviting living and gathering place where residents and visitors can find dining and entertainment, specialty and convenience shopping, historic sites and museums, family-oriented community events and commercial and municipal services.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
First Town Downtown believes in making diversity, equity and inclusion a core value of our organization. This value is born of the knowledge that inequity, particularly regarding race, ethnicity and gender identity, is an unacceptable barrier to effective and lasting community engagement and vitality.

We demonstrate our commitment through our actions and our desire to make sure we are representative of our community. This includes deliberate actions relating to:

• ensuring ethnic, racial and gender diversity in selecting vendors for our Farmers Market and performers for our concert series
• ensuring community access by providing family-friendly programming at no cost including a safe place to trick or treat for Windsor and the surrounding communities
• ensuring an equitable board by expanding our recruitment to underrepresented populations.

Our town center is for everyone. For more information, contact our Main Street Manager, Deb DeLucia.
