2018 EVENTS 

The Bayview PopUP market provides an opportunity for entrepreneurs to shine. Our experience with this market revealed a growing demand for a local distribution outlet to small and emerging businesses as they develop their products and business plans.  For some, this was a much-needed step towards the attainment of and commitment to a brick-and-mortar location.  

For others it was their primary platform for exposure to grow their home- or commissary kitchen-based catering operations, etc. Two vendors from the past year have grown their business to a brick and mortar location – Butchertown Gourmet and Gratta Wines at 5173 Third Street.

The Bayview Pop-Up Market also provides the neighborhood with a family-friendly space in which to socialize and to support local entrepreneurs and artists.  With very few businesses, restaurants, or take-out options available in the Bayview after work hours, long-term residents have come to expect NOT to consider Third Street in the evening. In conjunction with events like the 3rd on Third, The Bayview Community Pop-Up Market will help nurture micro, local, and new businesses while putting the Bayview back on the post-workday map.
