SUMMARY:The Marquette Regional History Center presents the Special Exhibit: The U.P. Through 250 Artifacts
DESCRIPTION:February 23\, 2026-January 2\, 2027 \nThis exhibit showcases two hundred and fifty artifacts\, photographs\, and documents from our permanent collections. These objects connect local history to the national story while commemorating the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. \nMichigan’s Upper Peninsula has often seemed remote from the rest of the country. However\, the themes and movements of U.S. history can be seen here as well\, especially since the War of 1812. When the country braced for the Civil War\, U.P. iron miners raced to uncover iron for the Union army’s railroads and ammunitions. When labor movements exploded following World War II\, Ishpeming’s Gossard garment factory went on strike for better wages. Objects rarely on display include the medal awarded to a local Spanish American War nurse and a hand sewn battle flag brought home by a soldier from the War of 1812.  Visit marquettehistory.org or call 906.226.3571 for more info.

SUMMARY:Fireworks at Bridgefest 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Keweenaw Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce that IncredibleBank will serve as the official Jon Davis Memorial Fireworks Sponsor for Bridgefest 2026\, taking place June 11–14\, 2026. \n  \nAs the Fireworks Sponsor\, IncredibleBank is proud to support one of Bridgefest’s most anticipated traditions. “We’re thrilled to be part of Bridgefest 2026\,” said Kyle Kumpula\, Market Manager of IncredibleBank. “Supporting the fireworks is a wonderful way to bring people together and celebrate our community. We’re looking forward to sharing an unforgettable night with residents and visitors alike.” \n  \nThe fireworks display will take place on Saturday\, June 13\, with spectators invited to watch the sky over the Portage Canal light up at 10:35 p.m. This year promises an elevated experience as fireworks will be launched from a barge stationed in the heart of the canal creating the thrilling sensation of bursts igniting from the water itself. This unique mid-canal vantage point allows for a wider\, more immersive display\, with reflections dancing across the water and vibrant colors surrounding viewers from multiple shoreline perspectives. A special thank you to our barge sponsor\, MJO Contracting\, for helping make this vision a reality. Please note: Heads up\, boaters! A no wake zone\, and 500’ radius from the barge will be in place two hours before the Bridgefest fireworks launch to ensure the safety of both the display and all watercrafts. \n  \nThe spectacular 16-minute show will be synchronized to music\, which can be enjoyed by tuning in to 97.7 FM\, adding another layer of excitement to the sights and sounds of the evening. \n  \n“We’re grateful to partner with IncredibleBank for this signature Bridgefest event\,” said Katie Schlief of the Keweenaw Chamber of Commerce. “After years of envisioning fireworks launched from the water\, it’s incredibly exciting to finally bring this vision to life. This new perspective from the canal will deliver a one-of-a-kind experience and create unforgettable memories for our community.” \n  \nFor more information about Bridgefest 2026 and ways to get involved\, visit www.bridgefestfun.com or follow us on Facebook and Instagram.
