On Thursday, May 19, event space The Walnut House will host the Murfreesboro Small Business Fair. Free and open to the public, this event will feature representatives from local independent businesses. The Murfreesboro Small Business Fair will offer food, drink, music, art, networking, demonstrations, sample products, and giveaways to those attending. 

Event organizer and The Murfreesboro Pulse Publisher Bracken Mayo explains the purpose of the event. He shares, “We aim for the event to generate some business for all of the vendors, connect local consumers with some new cool businesses that add value to their lives, and also to inspire some of the new and aspiring entrepreneurs to follow their passion and launch their own business.”

According to Bracken, this event marks the third Murfreesboro Small Business Fair at the Walnut House. The event’s past success in the previous years has convinced participating vendors and the Walnut House team to pull out all the stops this year. 

Bracken recommends the event to those Murfreesboro residents who are considering a jump into entrepreneurship. The event has the power to connect aspiring entrepreneurs with like-minded individuals and local resources. He notes that Murfreesboro consumers are supportive of local businesses and that an entrepreneur taking a leap of faith may be rewarded. 

Bracken tells Murfreesboro Voice readers, “A lot of Murfreesboro's small, locally owned businesses have been around for decades and are thriving; others, unfortunately, for one reason or another, do not last very long. This event is an effort among a wide range of local businesses banding together to help each other gain a little more visibility in the community and reach some more customers.”
