Since 2009, Crafty Mart has been hosting maker markets for handmade artisans, artists and crafters in various spaces around Akron, although it’s now settled in its own dedicated space at the Bounce Innovation Hub in downtown Akron, which has given it the ability to develop even more programs to encourage and educate local makers.
One such program is its annual Creative Catapult. For this event its selects four makers who took part in its Master Maker educational program to do a pitch for their business idea at the audience, who’ll vote for the winner who gets a $2000 grant to help make their idea a reality.
The evening also includes dinner from Square Scullery, music from Andru Dennis, and items made by local makers, including the centerpieces and the desserts.
