About Us
The Los Banos Downtown Association has been serving downtown Los Banos, California since 2019 when it was established as an association for business owners to gather and collaborate, focusing their efforts on creating a vibrant
place to shop, dine, work and play, where the downtown is showcased as a destination that brings people together and lends economic opportunity for businesses, enabling them to establish new customer connections.
​
In addition to serving as a resource to local businesses, we host several community events throughout the year that have become central to the culture of our community.
​
Downtown Los Banos offers the historic business environment of yesterday, while catering to modern needs. The tree-lined streets, outdoor music, wall murals of old Los Banos, inviting storefronts, and historic façades harmoniously lend to the unique downtown Los Banos experience while community members and visitors stroll through the downtown, visiting the offerings found here – some of which that have been serving this community for generations

Our Purpose
The Los Banos Downtown Association represents its general membership with a unified voice to support economic development and historical preservation of downtown Los Banos and our community while celebrating our diverse culture. There is a focus on historical preservation and revitalization to enhance the downtown through the regulation of façade improvements in terms of color, awnings, art, and signage. The Los Banos Downtown Association is governed by a Board of Directors which is responsible for providing vision and leadership to its staff and downtown stakeholders. The Board includes downtown business owners, property owners, and residents dedicated to the improvement of downtown Los Banos and the community. Their objective is to organize and support events, initiatives, and activities that showcase downtown Los Banos as a destination that brings people and families together while supporting downtown merchants and businesses.
