2023 State of Main Street Press Conference

Please join State Auditor Julie Blaha for the annual State of Main Street. This is the culmination event following four regional listening sessions in March. The listening tour brought together the expertise and perspective of local government leaders and our data.

The State of Main Street is an opportunity for the Office of the State Auditor to hear from you directly to ensure our numbers reflect what's happening in your community. Listening and learning from each other will lead to better decisions, and better decisions will lead to stronger communities.

The 2023 State of Main Street Final Analysis is available.


Monday, April 17 | 11:00 a.m.

The press conference will be live streamed on YouTube.

Members of the press are invited to join us in-person in the State Capitol Press Conference Room B971 or virtually via Zoom (registration required).


If you have any questions or would like to attend in person, please contact Megan Thrasher Clark at megan.thrasher@osa.state.mn.us or 612-231-3120.
