Family Hub proudly hosted its third annual Chicago Commons Market on Saturday, July 27. This event, an evolution of our 2022 Entrepreneurship Fair, highlights the power of community collaboration and entrepreneurial spirit. The market featured 37 parent vendors showcasing unique products, from artisanal crafts to delicious treats.
Before the market, participants complete a Small Business Development workshop series, gaining essential skills and tips for success. This program equips our vendors with the knowledge and confidence needed to shine.
A special shoutout to our amazing small business owners! Your dedication, ingenuity, and entrepreneurial spirit not only enrich our market but also strengthen our community. Thank you to everyone who supported our vendors and enjoyed the festivities. We look forward to next year’s market!
