About This Event

Started by the Center for Home Movies in Oakland, California, Home Movie Day is a celebration of amateur movies and filmmaking that takes place in venues all over the county. At Home Movie Day events, screenings take place that allow individuals and families to come show their home movies at an open screening with an audience of their community members. If you haven’t watched your home movies for a long time or just inherited some from a grandparent, or another relative, this event will be a great time to get acquainted with and/or rediscover those family treasures.

On October 11, 2025, from 1:30-3:30 pm there will be a Home Movie Day screening at Historic Forestville. Along with the popcorn and home movies from the local community we will be showing some digitized film from the Minnesota Historical Society collection.

If you’d like to show your movies at the event, contact Historic Forestville Site Manager Matt Eidem at 507-765-2785 and arrange an appointment to have them inspected for screening.
