2026 Youth Makers Registration

Welcome! Please fill out the form below and submit your registration fee if you are interested in signing up for Youth Maker opportunities for 2026. This year, primary Youth Makers opportunities consist of Farmers Market Saturdays and First Friday Art Crawl participation. We are exploring options for collaborating with the King Street Farmers Markets as well.

See instructions below for participating in Farmers Market dates.

Please click here for general Youth Makers policies 

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Farmer's Market Participation: We’re changing our process this year. Instead of a first-come, first-served RSVP system, we will be piloting assigned event dates for Youth Makers Markets in 2026.

Below, you’ll find all Farmers Market dates that include Youth Makers Markets (held on the second and fourth Saturdays from May through October). Please select all dates your Youth Maker(s) are available to attend.

Selecting dates below does not confirm participation on those dates. Your availability will be used by WAC staff to assign event dates, and you will receive an email in the coming weeks (or as quickly as possible, if submitting after the season has started) with your final assigned dates based on the information provided in this form.

If you have multiple Youth Makers and only some can attend on a specific date, please still select that date and explain your situation in the comments section below. Otherwise, we will assume all kids submitted in your form are interested in the dates selected.

 

First Friday Participation: RSVPs are not required for First Fridays this year. By completing this general registration form, you will automatically be included in First Friday email communications so your Youth Maker knows how to participate.

For First Friday set-up:

- Youth Makers should set up outside along the sidewalks in front of the Turchin Center.
- Set-ups may not block the stairs.
- Set-ups are not permitted in the covered patio area, as the Turchin uses that space for its own programming.
- Youth Makers may set up anywhere else along the Turchin Center storefront, provided their display does not force pedestrians to step into the street to pass.

 

King Street Farmers Market: This is a new opportunity for 2026. Read the policies to learn more about this opportunity. 

Youth Makers are invited to participate in the King Street Farmers Market this year. This is a self-run opportunity, meaning interested families will be responsible for coordinating logistics directly with one another.

Please review the Policies document for full details before making your decision.

If you are interested in participating, indicate your interest below. By doing so, you grant WAC permission to share your contact information with other interested families (via email thread, group chat, or similar) to allow for direct coordination.
