HIVE in the making...
FOUNDER/CEO
Kelly is incredibly excited to launch HIVE Market to bring together members of the local artisan community! Kelly has had previous experience in event and art market management as well as work in performing arts and fitness. She also co-owns COVE Arts & Wellness in Canoga Park with Tea Sommelier, Stef Warner.
The inspiration to launch HIVE market came from Kelly's love of the LA community and a desire to celebrate the successes of small businesses. Being a the owner of her own crafting business, Fashionably Theatrical Crafts, she understands first-hand the challenges that come with running a small business and wants nothing more than to provide a platform where businesses can thrive!
Innovation, positivity, honesty, and a strong sense of community are just a few of the key components that Kelly & her staff will bring to each HIVE Market event!
