Many of these small businesses turn into bigger entities, turning their passion into full time work and even opening a storefront. As owner and organizer of Milwaukee Makers Market, a series of 9-10 events that take place around the city each year, Ryan now welcomes 48 makers on the Sundays he holds these amazing experiences.
