FUN FIRST FRIDAYS

October 5, November 2, December 7

Began in April 2012 as a means to support the entrepreneurial spirit of people with disabilities in our community. People with disabilities are often not afforded equal employment opportunities and begin micro-enterprise businesses and sell hand crafted items including ceramics, paintings, jewelry, t-shirts and hats.

There are few affordable opportunities for these artisans to sell their creations to the community and those are generally provided by disability service provider agencies. This limits the goal of having a micro-enterprise provide a valued identity in the community at large. Fun First Fridays provides an inclusive community setting to showcase the abilities and self-determination of people with disabilities.

Fun First Fridays takes place the first Friday of every month at 27300 Wixom Road at the corner of Grand River Avenue. The event is indoors at a large retail store that does not allow us to advertise or use their company name.

We are seeking partners who share our commitment to support people with disabilities who can and want to become productive members of society.

We would like to have any local companies that want to demonstrate their support of people with disabilities to be self-determined entrepreneurs by listing our logo on your commercials and other advertising or promotional materials, encouraging your clients to visit our event. There is no cost to any company to be a participating sponsor of Fun First Fridays. We invite your company to attend and set up a display promoting your products or services.

FUN FIRST FRIDAYS will take place on:
October 5, November 2, December 7 from 10am to 7pm. The event will be indoors at 27300 Wixom Road at the corner of Grand River Avenue. Please do not use name or logo of the company that allows this event in their building.

Vendors space is available. Anyone in Michigan is invited to exhibit their products.
