Good morning, this is your Traverse City Local Frequency for Sunday, August 31, 2025.
Today’s weather is off to a clear and comfortable start, expected to warm up to a pleasant high near seventy-eight degrees. If you’re headed out, it looks like another beautiful day to explore all the things happening in and around Traverse City.
Start your morning with fresh produce at the Interlochen Farmers Market, running until two o’clock at the corner of US-31 and J. Maddy Parkway. It’s a great spot to pick up local fruits, veggies, artisan foods, and handcrafted art, all while soaking up the community vibe. This market is held every Sunday through October, so if you miss it today, there’s plenty of time to catch future weekends. Later in the morning, art lovers can head to Higher Art Gallery for the “Forest Dwellers” duo show featuring Michigan artists Deborah Bowen and Cara O’Brien. The exhibit runs through September twentieth, so today could be the perfect day to see some fresh local talent.
If you’re in the mood for more visual inspiration, the Dennos Museum Center is showcasing “Matt Shlian: Every Line is a Circle if You Make it Long Enough.” Whether you’ve got an eye for sculpture or you’re just curious, this unique exhibit opens late morning, promising something memorable for both art novices and aficionados.
Families, if you’re searching for something easy and relaxing, tonight catch “Movie Night on the Lawn” at Seven Hills. Spread out a blanket and let the kids run free as twilight settles over the city, making for a classic northern Michigan way to end the weekend.
For music fans, Glen Arbor’s River Club offers live performances throughout the evening today. Or for an extra dose of entertainment, head up to the Great Lakes Center for the Arts in Bay Harbor at four o’clock for Jersey Boys. This hit show follows the rise of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, packed with energy and nostalgia, and is a great reason for a little Sunday road trip out of town.
Those seeking a meaningful way to connect with the community can join this evening’s International Overdose Awareness Day Ceremony. Held at the Botanic Garden at Historic Barns Park at six, the ceremony honors loved ones lost and reminds us all of the importance of compassion and support. These gatherings bring real impact, setting Traverse City apart as a place that cares deeply about its neighbors.
Elsewhere in local headlines, Traverse City is remembering Doug Gallagher, a beloved farmer whose contributions have shaped the region’s agricultural spirit. The weekend also saw city firefighters honored for lifesaving work, while schools in Wexford County expand their wellness centers to improve health access—important steps to keep our community strong and resilient.
And don’t forget, if you missed last night’s “Saturdays in the Park” concert at the Civic Center Amphitheater, keep an eye out for more outdoor music events coming up on the Traverse City calendar. From club nights to wine tours and gallery shows, there’s a reason folks say “It’s always event season” here.
That wraps up your Traverse City Local Frequency for today. This has been Traverse City Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
