Join Bronx Night Market and Radial Park co-founder Marco Shalma as he shares insights into the New York food scene. In this talk, Shalma will explore the catastrophic effects of COVID-19 on the food-market and how New York City food vendors are overcoming the obstacles. Shalma will share his team's creative actions to support micro-businesses, discuss the challenges faced in providing New Yorkers a sense of normalcy, and talk about what is being done to make the Bronx Night Market and Radial Park safe spaces during the pandemic. The Bronx Night Market, the only open-air market to operate in 2020, and Radial Park, the innovative "cinamersive" playground that followed the mega-viral Uptown Drive-in Experience by Yankee Stadium, were two of the most celebrated activities during the fall and winter of 2020. This talk will explore their origin and comeback stories and look forward to what the future holds for foodies worldwide while shedding light on a new wave of food concepts Shalma is excited about!
