August is National Black Business Month, and while you’re out there taking Candy Lowe’s Black business bus tour and walking through doorways of businesses all month long, this weekend presents an opportunity to support the youngest Black business owners during St. Pete’s “2nd Annual Kid-Preneur Jamboree” where organizers hope to host more than a dozen young entrepreneurs.
The two-day event kicks off Saturday, Aug. 6 with the Kid-Preneur WorkShop at Rising Tide Innovation Center from 2 p.m.-5 p.m. before Sunday’s main event at New Hope Baptist Church from 3 p.m.-7 p.m.
The event is free to attend, and will also include face painting, a bounce house, community resources, plus a backpack and school supplies giveaway.
