Calling all young makers, artists, inventors, and future business owners! In this hands-on class, kids will not only create amazing crafts—they’ll also learn how to turn their creations into a mini business.
Each week, students will:
Design and make a variety of unique, handmade crafts
Learn the basics of branding, pricing, and selling
Create a simple "business plan" for their craft idea
Practice real-world skills like presentation, planning, and teamwork
Kids will have an opportunity to sell their wares at our annual Hollyday artist market and showcase their handmade creations to family and friends in our community!
Perfect for creative kids who love making things and are curious about how they can share their talent with the world—and maybe earn a little pocket money, too.
Let’s make, dream, and build something great!
