The Astoria Sunday Market Young Entrepreneur program is hosting its annual Open House at 6 p.m. Jan. 26 at the Astoria Event Center, 255 Ninth St. Pizza and beverages will be served, and kids are encouraged to bring their ideas and enthusiasm to share as they learn how to become a Young Entrepreneur. 

The event kicks off a series of free workshops to help youth prepare a product for sale at Astoria Sunday Market. Workshop topics include developing a product, salesmanship, designing a display and planning a budget. The program remains free thanks to underwriting from Recology Western Oregon, Wauna Federal Credit Union and Clatsop Community Bank. 

“Whether or not a kid decides to participate in the Astoria Sunday Market, the workshops are a fun and interesting way to explore what it takes to turn a dream into reality,” noted Market Director Cyndi Mudge. “We strive to keep the workshops free, interesting and fun.”
