Woodlawn Marketplace began in fall 2021 when REV created a retail pop-up featuring a total of 22 Woodlawn Street Market vendors – all women and minority entrepreneurs – over four months in Social Venture’s storefront on 1st Avenue South. The first Woodlawn Marketplace sold local goods and brought interest to a space that would have been vacant until d’Trespa Boutique opened in March.
