Building
Community
Join us at our outdoor street markets, designed to elevate, engage, and support the community, local artists, and local black-owned businesses. We transform five Blocks along A. Philip Randolph Boulevard from Union Street to Jessie Street into a showcase for start-ups, new brands, and existing businesses seeking a platform to promote and offer their products or services. We also curate live performances and events by local artists of all genres, including music, spoken word, and dance.
