Downtown Beaver Dam business to receive state grant in makeover contest

A downtown Beaver Dam business is set for a makeover after being one of the winners of the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation’s annual Main Street Makeover contest.

Art on the Town, 127 Front St., was one of the three businesses that will receive the funding and assistance to upgrade the stores next year. Market Street Boutique, De Pere and Minocqua Popcorn & Puffs, Eagle River are the other two businesses.

Art on the Town is owned by Kris Schumacher-Rasmussen who opened the Front Street store in 2019.

“The studio is thrilled to be selected for the WEDC Main Street Makeover grant,” Schumacher-Rasmussen said. “We are ready to transform our space to provide an enhanced experience and greater visibility for our community.”
