2026 Children's Art Business Fair
At the heart of Art on the River, we are proud to showcase something truly special—our Children’s Business Fair, where creativity meets courage and young ideas come to life.
This space is dedicated to the next generation of artists, makers, and entrepreneurs—children who have taken a brave step to create something of their own and share it with the world. From handmade jewelry and artwork to innovative designs and unique creations, each business you’ll see here represents imagination, effort, and heart.
These young vendors aren’t just selling products—they’re learning what it means to dream, to build, and to believe in their ideas. They are discovering confidence, responsibility, and the joy of creating something meaningful.
As you explore their businesses, we invite you to celebrate their creativity, support their efforts, and be part of an experience that encourages growth, innovation, and community.
💛 Every purchase is more than a transaction—it’s an investment in a child’s confidence and future.
Join us on May 2 at Art on the River and experience the energy, talent, and inspiration these young entrepreneurs bring to life.
