In this special episode, I’m joined by the founder of the Alexandria Makers Market (AMM) and A/VA Apparel, Alyssa Kovach. We chat about how AMM came to be, past events they’ve held, and the upcoming Work/Shop Week pop-up.

Work/Shop Week will be held at The Seedling Collective from August 3-7 in Alexandria, VA. It features local businesses, a kids camp, and several adult DIY workshops that include leatherworking and Danish paper folding.

You can also catch me there! I’ll be leading a session on How to Start a Podcast on a Budget and doing headshot mini sessions for small businesses and makers.
