The Auburn Downtown Association – in partnership with the Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation Department’s Youth Council – created four holiday baskets hanging on Main Street.

The ADA purchased the materials for the baskets and the Youth Council assembled them for display.

The baskets adorn holiday plants and lights and hang from light poles near the City Hall plaza. The display is part of the ADA’s Hometown Magic project that adorns Auburn’s downtown with roofline lights, snowflakes on light poles and hanging planter baskets.

In addition, holiday music is being piped along Main Street for shoppers, courtesy of the City of Auburn.
