About our event

This event puts vendors in front of an entirely new audience, allowing them two full days to showcase and sell their items. This event is the kick-off of the holiday shopping season at our large indoor mall, as it is set the weekend the mall's popular large Christmas tree is put up and ready for pictures. With room for over 60 vendors, patrons often find unique and unexpected gifts for loved ones. This event sees thousands of shoppers throughout the weekend and puts our vendors in front of customers who may not otherwise find them.

Sponsorship Opportunities

Sponsoring this event supports small fish in a big sea! Being able to blast this event all over our city is my biggest goal. We are in our second year of this event and we plan to continue with it for many years to come, solidifying your sponsorship now, while this already popular event is young, puts you in a prime position to grow with the event itself!

Hello! My name is Breanna Greenwalt, I am a small business owner in Lincoln NE. About 3 years ago, I noticed a lack of local events in our town that were not related to schools or churches. I saw a need for break-out markets and recurring events that the community and small business owners could depend on, year after year. I have a deep passion for each one of these events and for every single vendor that comes through my markets and events. My main mission is to get small makers, business owners, and even those just starting, out in front of our local community. While also supporting the unique community that vendors have. I LOVE my job, even though it can oftentimes be stressful and overwhelming (hello, Nebraska weather). The only thing that fills me with more joy than seeing my vendors succeed, is working with our hoard of rescue dogs that we foster. All of these things work in giving back to local communities and those in need. I also love working with women-centered non-profits and designing fundraising events to hype up local non-profits and get them into local people's minds! I hope that you will see my passion in my projects and choose to help us make these events bigger and better than ever!
