A new monthly market aimed at supporting local restaurants and businesses hurt by the pandemic is coming to Lincoln Road next month.
As a prelude to its annual event in May, the South Beach Wine and Food Festival (SOBEWFF) has announced a partnership with the Lincoln Road Business Improvement District (BID) in an effort to highlight small businesses affected by ongoing COVID-related restrictions. The monthly outdoor market series, a collaborative effort by BID board member Lyle Stern and SOBEWFF founder Lee Brian Schrager, is slated to launch on Sunday, January 24, although the date has not been confirmed. The market, which has not yet been named, will run each month leading up to the 2021 SOBEWFF, which has been pushed back from its traditional mid-February time slot to May 20-23, 2021.
