KEVA Sunnyside Market

Calling all young entrepreneurs to the KEVA Sunnyside Market!

This event will take place on August 15th, 11:00am-4:00pm at the KEVA studio!

A celebration of big ideas, creative thinking, and the next generation of makers! Join us for a fun, inspiring day where young entrepreneurs showcase and sell their products, share their stories, and bring their bright ideas to life. From handmade goods to clever creations, this festival is all about supporting kids with creativity, confidence, and a whole lot of heart. Come shop, cheer them on, and discover what these amazing young makers have been dreaming up!

This event is hosted and sponsored by KEVA, but run by students themselves! High school students from Midlothian and James River, some of which have been involved in similar programs to the market, are here to aide young business owners in their entrepreneurial success!

Big ideas start here! If you're ready to share your creativity, products, or business with the community, we'd love for you to apply. All participants must complete an application, and spots are limited. So dream big, fill out the application, and show us what makes your business uniquely you! The deadline for applications is June 25th, 2026, and acceptances will come out on July 1st!

There is a fee of $20 for any accepted participants, which we will collect on the day of the market through cash, check (addressed to KEVA), or Venmo. Fee is per group, not per person!

Feel free to email us with any questions at sales@kevastyle.com or come by KEVA Studio anytime Wednesday through Saturday, 11:00am-5:00pm!

We hope to see you there!
