Venue: Heroic Productions Warehouse

The 9th Annual MN Star Awards was a transformative night. By day, the space is a production company warehouse, but by night the event professionals involved created a wild, steampunk dream. There were multiple rooms to explore with intricate, industrial chic decor, and wild performances.
