Night Market 2025: Calling All Kid Entrepreneurs!

6/9/2025

Calling all kid entrepreneurs! Have a knack for creating beautiful art, crafting your own jewelry, or even making your own slime? We're inviting you to showcase your talent to the community at upcoming NMPL's Night Market event!

NMPL's Night Market event is one of our most popular programs of the year. This block party meets glow-in-the-dark fun meets shopping local businesses is the ultimate fall family fun extravaganza.

This year, we're planning on making it bigger and better than ever. Local businesses, vendors, and artisans set up stands to sell their goods at the event, and we want to once again, open this up to our kid entrepreneurs!

That's right, you could be a vendor at the 2025 Night Market on September 19th!

Only a select number of kid vendors will be chosen, so to be a part of this event, ask your parent or guardian for permission and fill out the application form below. (Print copies are also available at the NMPL front desk.)

Bring the form into the library by Thursday, July 31st. Please note that all approved kid vendors will need to pay a $10 vendor fee to the library once they have been selected for the event.
