The Transform Lexington Market Project

We are excited to announce that the application process for the new Lexington Market will launch on August 11th, 2020. It's an effort that we have collaborated closely on with our partners Baltimore Corps and Innovation Works for the past nine months, ensuring it selects a mix of vendors that represent the best of the region's food culture, increases the diversity of ownership in the Market, and adds variety to the Market’s offerings.
