About the fair
Help Your Child Become a Young Entrepreneur!
At our one-day marketplace, kids create a brand, build a product or service, design a marketing plan, and sell to real customers — all in one exciting day!
They’ll gain confidence, creativity, and business skills while having fun. Inspired by entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs or local business owners, your child will learn the value of hard work, innovation, and community.
It’s a hands-on experience that could spark a lifelong passion!
