THE WOODLANDS, TX -- As part of its 20th Anniversary celebration, The Woodlands Arts Council (TWAC) is proud to announce the first-ever Young Makers Market, to be held on September 7, 2024, at Market Street The Woodlands. This one-of-a-kind opportunity for students aged 8-18 in Montgomery County to sell their unique artistic creations in a one-day mini-arts festival will teach participants about entrepreneurship, marketing, and what it is like to be a working artist in workshops before the big event.

“As an organization, we are having so much fun collaborating with community partners like Market Street, The Woodlands Compounding Pharmacy, and Woodforest National Bank to put together this experience for the young artists in our community,” said TWAC Executive Director Jenny Carattini-Wright. “It is a great way to kick off our 20th Anniversary and reflect our non-profit mission.”

"Market Street is a longtime supporter of the local arts community," said Market Street Marketing Director Noemi Gonzalez. "We are delighted to host the first Young Makers Market and look forward to the event inspiring creativity in both participants and attendees."
