What's on
Workshops, markets, and morning coffee with people running the same kind of business you are. Most of it is free, and anyone can come.
November 2026
Marketing on a Budget
Workshop · 6:00pm–7:30pm · Coffee Muse
What it actually costs to get customers when you have no ad budget. Bring your worst-performing post.
From Etsy to Storefront
Panel · 6:30pm–8:00pm · Art Masterclass OC
Three owners who made the jump, including one who went back. Honest about rent and how long it took.
Founder Breakfast
Networking · 8:00am–9:30am · Hopper & Burr
Ten people, pastries, and everyone says what they're stuck on. The table works on it.
Photography for Instagram
Workshop · 5:30pm–7:00pm · Art Supply Warehouse
Shooting your own product with a phone and a window. Bring something you sell.
December 2026
Small Business Market
Signature event · 10:00am–4:00pm · Downtown Santa Ana
Makers, food, music, and a kids' table. The one day everyone on the list is in the same place.
Women in Business
Networking · 6:00pm–7:30pm · Enchanted Coffee
No panel, no speaker. Just the room and a question on each table to get people going.
Taxes for Entrepreneurs
Workshop · 6:00pm–7:30pm · Santa Ana Public Library
A local CPA on what to track when you're a one-person shop. Always runs long.
Nothing of that sort on the calendar right now.
You probably know something somebody else needs.
If you can explain how you do your books, or your photos, or how you priced your first wholesale order — that's a workshop. We'll find the room and the people.
