While Crosstown Concourse is home to a vibrant ecosystem of art, food, retail, and business, today we celebrate the nonprofits that bring our community vision to life. These organizations work across health, education, arts, and social equity, creating real and lasting change for Memphis.
“Crosstown Concourse was born from a collective civic vision led by non-profit Founding Partners who saw this space as a catalyst for community transformation. The organizations here today—focused on arts, education, health, and social impact—provide essential resources that make a real difference for Memphis. Together, they’ve turned Concourse into more than just a workplace; it’s a place where people find inspiration, support, and opportunities to grow. Their presence is the heart and life-blood of what makes Crosstown Concourse a true community anchor that represents the city as a whole.”
— Todd Richardson, President & CEO, Crosstown Concourse
