Meet volunteer Neil Mattson. Neil has has helped set up almost every market this year and is always looking out for ways to keep the market site safe and looking it’s best.
Neil is a jazz guitarist and Montavilla resident and business owner. Neil leads his own instrumental jazz group, Trio Flux, and can also be found playing in various groups and settings around Portland. Neil’s passion is helping others, community, and volunteering for a variety of neighborhood organizations including the Montavilla Farmers Market, the Southeast Portland Tool Library, and the Montavilla Food Co-op. When he is not playing guitar and helping in the neighborhood, he’s likely somewhere enjoying a beer and watching hockey. Neil’s business is Montavilla Guitar Studio, founded in 2013 with the goal to bring excellence to guitar education.
