Description

Lights. Camera. Community!

The Hermantown Area Chamber of Commerce 46th Annual Meeting & Celebration

Thursday, November 19, 2026 | AAD Shrine, Hermantown

The spotlight is on the Northland — and YOU'RE invited!

Roll out the red carpet! We're celebrating 46 years of business, community, connections, and the people who make our region shine!

Join us for one of the Hermantown Area Chamber's biggest nights of the year — an evening filled with great connections, delicious food, celebration, recognition, and a little movie magic!

This year's featured attraction? The growing film industry right here in the Northland!

Hollywood isn't the only place where movie magic happens! Film production is gaining momentum across northeastern Minnesota, creating exciting opportunities for local businesses, skilled trades, hospitality, tourism, and entrepreneurs.

And here's something you might not realize: Every film production is essentially a small business — bringing people, investment, and economic activity into the communities where filming takes place.

We're thrilled to welcome Shari Marshik, Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Upper Midwest Film Office, as our keynote speaker! She'll take us behind the scenes of this growing industry, share what's happening across our region, and explore how Northland businesses can be part of the action.


Your Evening's Lineup

4:00–6:00 PM | The Opening Act: Networking Reception

Mix, mingle, reconnect with familiar faces, and make some new connections with business and community leaders from across the region!

6:15 PM | Dinner Is Served

Enjoy a delicious dinner and great company as we settle in for the evening's main attractions.

7:00 PM | Celebrating Our Stars

We'll celebrate another remarkable year for the Hermantown Area Chamber, recognize the people and businesses helping our community thrive, and look ahead to what's next!

7:30 PM | Feature Presentation: The Northland's Growing Film Industry

Join Shari Marshik for an exciting behind-the-scenes look at the business of filmmaking and the opportunities unfolding right here in our backyard!

8:00 PM | That's a Wrap!
