Kids’ Flea Pop Up Launches in St. Petersburg, Empowering Young Entrepreneurs

A new initiative, the Kids’ Flea Pop Up, is set to launch in St. Petersburg, FL, thanks to a collaboration between Indie Flea Market and BayFirst National Bank. This program aims to nurture the entrepreneurial spirit in young minds by providing them with a platform to showcase their creative talents and learn about business firsthand. The Kids’ Flea Pop Up will run concurrently with Indie Flea’s monthly market, starting this Sunday, January 8, featuring over 100 local vendors and makers from 12-4 pm.

The brainchild of Rosey Williams and Stacia Schraeder, the partnership between Indie Flea and BayFirst will not only support the budding entrepreneurs in the community but also offer them valuable mentorship and guidance. In addition to the pop-up market, the collaboration plans to host engaging events like happy hours to enhance the vendor experience and help them grow their businesses.

BayFirst National Bank’s involvement in the program will facilitate access to funding and financial tools for the young entrepreneurs, enabling them to make informed decisions and drive the success of their ventures. The Kids’ Flea Pop Up will be a recurring event every first Sunday from January to April, located at 14 18th Street South in St. Petersburg.

Indie Flea is renowned for its vibrant market that attracts a diverse range of local artisans, vendors, and collectors, creating a bustling hub of creativity and commerce. The collaboration with BayFirst and the introduction of the Kids’ Flea Pop Up will further enrich this dynamic market space, offering a unique opportunity for children to explore the world of entrepreneurship in a supportive and interactive environment.

By fostering a spirit of innovation and providing practical resources, Indie Flea and BayFirst aim to empower the next generation of business leaders in St. Petersburg. The Kids’ Flea Pop Up represents a significant step towards cultivating a culture of entrepreneurship and creativity within the community, laying the foundation for a vibrant and sustainable local economy.

As the inaugural Kids’ Flea Pop Up kicks off this Sunday, attendees can look forward to a day filled with creativity, inspiration, and the boundless energy of young entrepreneurs eager to make their mark on the bustling market scene in St. Petersburg. Admission to both Indie Flea and the Kids’ Flea Pop Up is free, encouraging families and visitors to come together and support the burgeoning talent in the Burg.
