A Message from the Executive Director

I’m continually reminded that Midtown Global Market is more than a destination—it’s a living reflection of the cultures, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit that define our community.

It is truly an honor to support the entrepreneurs and small business owners who bring this space to life each day. Their stories, traditions and dedication are what make the Market not only a place to gather, but a place to connect, learn, and grow. Through our work, we remain committed to uplifting these businesses while continuing the effort to embrace and empower the broader community that surrounds and sustains the Market.

As we look ahead, our focus is on deepening these connections—creating more opportunities for cultural celebration, economic vitality, and shared experiences that welcome all. Whether through events, partnerships or everyday interactions, we believe Midtown Global Market can continue to evolve as a hub where community and commerce thrive together.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for supporting a space that belongs to so many.

Sincerely,
Matt Tell
Executive Director
