Why Woodlawn is a new hub for birmingham creatives

Birmingham’s Woodlawn neighborhood is growing rapidly, with many new businesses opening up post-COVID. One of the most noticeable areas of growth is amongst Woodlawn creatives. New business owners and residents are citing the area as a growing art district, bolstered by the support of the community and the Woodlawn Foundation. 

Angela, the owner of Marsuko, lives in Woodlawn and sells handmade clay jewelry. As a resident of four years and a business owner of two, she has seen the development first hand.

“It’s just been very exciting to see the growth. Cause when we moved in there was like a few things and now it’s slowly becoming vibrant and it’s awesome”

With no storefront, most of her sales are done online or at markets. She credits the Woodlawn market as her first pop-up,

“The first market that I did was the Woodlawn Street Market and now I have some jewelry at the Woodlawn street market’s marketplace, which is a permanent installment. At least for this season it is. So it’s really cool.”
