Entrepreneurial makers ages 4-18 are invited to bring their hand-crafted items to sell at a special Kids' Maker Market, inspired by the exhibition Make/Do: A History of Creative Reuse.
The Kids' Maker Market will be held on August 16, Free Third Thursday, from 4:00-7:00 PM. This is an opportunity for youth to experience the creative process, bring their ideas to life, and exercise business skills.

For visitors who want to make something of their own, Tinkertopia will be on hand with a craft table. Shoppers can also enjoy snacks while they peruse the kids' art and items available for sale; and10% of vendor sales will be donated to Oasis Youth Center.
