The Kids Artisan Market & Swap at the Booster is a fun, family-friendly gathering where creativity, sustainability, and community come together.
Happening on May 2 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., this event gives young makers a chance to sell, swap, or share their handmade treasures in a warm and welcoming space.
We can host 20 vendors on each date, and spots will be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis once the $10 vendor fee is received (via e-transfer or cash).
Possible Vendor Types

- Homemade baked goods, sweets, or healthy snacks (packaged for safety)
- Hand-painted cards, prints, or mini artworks
- Recycled or upcycled craft projects
- Knitted, crocheted, or sewn creations
- Nature-inspired crafts (pressed-flower bookmarks, pinecone ornaments, etc.)
- Gently used toy and book swap tables
- DIY slime, sensory jars, or mini science kits
- Sticker or button-making booths
- Small family or youth-run businesses

A perfect way for kids to explore entrepreneurship, practice creativity, and connect with others in a supportive, playful market atmosphere.
Please note:
Vendors must bring their own tables as we are unable to provide tables for the event.
We can, however, provide chairs upon request.
Also, to keep the market clean and safe for all participants, please avoid any items or setups that may create messes such as loose glitter, paint, or liquids.

Currently, the Booster venue does not have accessibility accommodations, but we are actively working to improve this in the future. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
