Takoma Childrens' Business Fair
Takoma Park Children’s Business Fair is a one-day marketplace that allows children to develop a brand, create a product or service, build a marketing strategy, then showcase to the community.
This event is hosted by local parents, the majority of funding is sponsored by Takoma Park business owners, and the generous support of our community volunteers. We all believe that principled entrepreneurs are heroes and role models for the next generation.
Who: Children Age 6-14
How many booths / children will be participating this year: 50 booths and up to 150 children!
When: Saturday May 4th between 10am - 2pm (Rain date: May 11th)
Where: Laurel Ave, Takoma Park, MD
Applications will be accepted online from 3/1 through 3/15. See attached flyers for more info.
Best,
TKPKCBF Team
