Chamber Minute | Ribbon Cuttings, Business After Hours & Home Show Momentum

We’re kicking things off this Friday, March 13 with a Ribbon Cutting for Coastal Photo Studio at 785 Virginia Ave in North Bend at 4:00 PM. Ribbon cuttings are always a great reminder that new ideas, entrepreneurship, and investment continue to grow in our community — and we encourage everyone to come help welcome Stephani’s creative new business. 🎀📸

Then next Friday, we’ll gather again at 4:00 PM for another ribbon cutting — this time for Acting Up inside Pony Village Mall. It’s exciting to see new energy and creativity continue to fill local spaces, and these celebrations matter because they show support for the people choosing to invest right here in our region. ✨🎭

On Thursday, March 19, join us for Business After Hours at the Coos Art Museum from 5:00 to 7:00 PM. This will be a wonderful evening featuring student art on display, along with food, beverages, and the opportunity to connect with fellow business and community leaders. Business After Hours remains one of the best ways to strengthen relationships while exploring the unique places that make our community special. 🖼️🤝

And while March is busy, we’re also looking ahead to one of our biggest annual events — the Oregon’s Bay Area Home Show happening April 24–26, presented by the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce and Primal Property Management. Planning is underway now, and we are actively looking for vendors who want to showcase their products and services. If your business wants visibility, direct customer interaction, and strong community exposure, this is your opportunity. ✅🏠
