Children’s Business Fair in Wenham

Observe the opportunity for children to launch their very own startup business! Deadline to apply for a booth: September 1st, 5pm. Kids develop a brand, create a product or service, build a marketing strategy, and then open for customers at our one-day marketplace. **At this time, we cannot accept applications for food or foodstuff that will trigger a health department approval. This includes: cupcakes, pre-packaged goods, home made candy or anything consumable. 

We will host approximately 50 booths for children vendors ages 8-18 years old at the upcoming Children's Business Fair on Saturday, September 21, from 11:00pm – 3:00 pm. We are charging a $25 booth fee (this is whether you share a table or not) which will cover all operational event costs. Children Vendors must start to set up at 10am and start to take down at 3pm. All children vendors should have an adult accompanying them for the duration of the event and in addition, there will be on-site volunteers who can help you. 

This event is sponsored by Acton Academy, the Acton School of Business and Salem State's Small Business Center.  We all believe that principled entrepreneurs are heroes and role models for the next generation.

Whether an entrepreneur is famous like Elon Musk or Oprah Winfrey or they are one of the thousands of unsung business owners across this country, these are the people who make sacrifices to innovate, create jobs and serve their communities.
