Thank you for a fabulous Youth Entrepreneur Market year! We had a wonderful turnout of talented young makers, bakers, and entrepreneurs, and we are so proud of everything they accomplished.
While our youth entrepreneurs take a seasonal break, be sure to check out our other Swell Markets events at locations throughout the community!
We look forward to welcoming our young entrepreneurs back in Spring 2027!
The Youth Entrepreneur Market is a celebration of the next generation of makers, creators, and business leaders. Featuring young entrepreneurs in 12th grade and under from Van Alstyne and surrounding communities, this market provides a real-world platform for creativity, innovation, and leadership.
From handmade goods to original product concepts, these young visionaries gain hands-on experience in branding, customer service, and entrepreneurship.
We invite you to shop with intention, offer encouragement, and invest in their future — because when we champion young entrepreneurs, we strengthen the foundation of our entire community.
