Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for Thursday, September 11th, 2025.
Today marks a solemn day of remembrance, as communities across Spokane and the Inland Northwest gather to honor the heroes and victims of September 11. Several tributes are planned, including the Spokane County Interstate Fair’s special Heroes Day, where free admission is offered all day to military members, veterans, first responders, and their families. Just bring your badge or military ID to take part. If you’re on campus, Eastern Washington University’s Memorial Stair Climb gets underway at eight this morning, inviting participants to climb 110 floors in honor of first responders lost on 9/11. Over in Coeur d’Alene, the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office hosts a memorial at Silver Lake Mall from eleven, open to all as a space to reflect and recognize both the citizens and responders who gave so much.
Moving to Spokane’s arts scene, tonight promises cinematic inspiration at the Myrtle Woldson Performing Arts Center, where Mountainfilm on Tour showcases an exhilarating lineup of adventure-packed documentary films curated from the renowned Telluride festival. Proceeds and a live auction will support the Jess Roskelley Foundation, helping Spokane youth embrace climbing, outdoor stewardship, and adventure in memory of one of the city’s own legendary alpinists. If you’re seeking creative sparks outside Spokane’s boundaries, this Saturday brings Emerge’s ninth annual INK Print Rally to downtown Coeur d’Alene. The event celebrates the printmaking community with hands-on block printing, a bustling vendor market, and live surf-punk music from Dazer—a day that mixes artistry, community, and fun.
For fairgoers, Spokane County Interstate Fair continues to be a highlight of the week, combining rides, food stalls, local agriculture, and interactive exhibits that have thrilled the region for decades. Expect plenty of family fun and maybe even a few memorable encounters with neighbors and local talent. In neighborhood news, drivers are voicing their frustration about unclear lane markings and risky left turns near South McClellan and West 8th—many hoping city planners will respond with improved signage to ease the daily traffic symphony. Elsewhere, dialogue continues around new drive-thru proposals in local neighborhoods, stirring familiar debates over zoning and community input.
On a lighter note, food lovers can rejoice as new restaurants and cultural food events pop up, adding fresh flavor to Spokane’s culinary landscape. The library begins scheduling its fall harvest events, encouraging gardeners to share the bounty and connect with fellow plant enthusiasts. And as the weekend approaches, live music venues like the Knitting Factory are gearing up for seminal performances, so keep an eye out for late-night shows and one-off gigs that always promise big energy.
That’s what’s happening around Spokane today. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
