The Holliday-Dorsey-Fife House Museum is a cooperative project of the Fayetteville Downtown Development Authority and Fayetteville Main Street Program. For the past three years Brian Wismer has worked as the Main Street program manager for the City of Fayetteville.

Fayetteville received its designation as a Main Street City in 1996. Since that time, the downtown square has undergone a transformation process restoring the city's historic  streetscape while welcoming a variety of new businesses. The vision of Main Street is to re-establish the downtown area as the historical and cultural center of the county by creating a vibrant, thriving destination where culture, history, and commerce co-exist. The historical preservation and renovation of the Holliday-Dorsey-Fife House into Fayetteville's first museum is an example of Main Street's efforts to bring culture to the community.
