Durham’s Got Talent 📣

We had the honours to be a part of the 5th Annual Durham Region Children's Business Fair that was held at Grass Park in Brooklin this past weekend. So much talent and energy were shown by these 30 young entrepreneurs including our own Brooklin Catalyst Alumni Isabella (IG’s Cute Crafts) and Ollie (Love Space) 🙌🏼

Norma did an incredible job organizing this event and giving local youths a place to showcase their work, setup their shop and interact with customers for the day. Of course, our amazing Elizabeth Roy Mayor was also there providing support and encouragement to all youths!

We are always happy to see local markets and events that support Young Entrepreneurs! Each year, Parkwood Estate National Historic Site hosts a Fall and Spring Fest Vendor Market with a dedicated youth area as well.
