Good morning, this is your Bozeman Local Frequency for Wednesday, September 10, 2025.

It’s a crisp September morning here in Bozeman and the city is buzzing as we bid farewell to another vibrant summer and welcome the first hints of fall. Later today, don’t miss the Bozeman Symphonic Choir’s open rehearsal over at Hillcrest Senior Living. Whether you’re a music lover or just curious what goes into a great choral performance, stop by from 3 to 4 pm and see the group in action as they prep for future concerts.

Tonight at Lindley Park, the beloved Bozeman Farmers Market holds its season finale from five to eight. This open-air gathering has been a staple for 23 years, offering everything from fresh produce to local artisan crafts and baked goods, with a portion of proceeds helping improve Bozeman’s parks. Swing by to savor local flavors, say hello to the growers, and stock up before the market goes into hibernation for the colder months. It’s not just about veggies—it’s a celebration of our community, with a little something for everyone.

If you’re still thirsty for culture, mark your calendar for this Friday. The final Downtown Summer Art Walk lights up Main Street from six to eight, with galleries, shops, and restaurants offering glimpses of local artists and their latest works. Music floats through the evening air, making the stroll between venues a feast for the senses. The Emerson Center stands as a creative hub, and participating businesses will open their doors for a mix of art, music, food, and fun. It's free and always a highlight as summer draws to a close.

Kids and families, Glen Lake Rotary Park is hosting the award-winning Bumblewood Thicket Fairy Village through September 21. This imaginative art installation transforms the trails into a whimsical wonderland, with tiny fairy houses to delight young explorers and the young at heart. Take an afternoon to meander the park and soak in some magic.

Looking ahead, Montana State University is gearing up for Homecoming Week and has announced several special events. Today’s the RSVP deadline for the choral reunion rehearsal taking place downtown tonight. It’s a great chance for alumni and friends to connect over music and memories as campus comes alive ahead of the big game.

Over in Belgrade, the school district is proposing bonds for a new elementary school. If approved, the fifth graders would move out of the middle school, easing crowding and meeting the community’s call for more traditional grade groupings. The bond vote comes this November, and neighbors have been passionate in sharing their input. If construction greenlights, the new school could open by fall 2027, shaping the future of local education with a focus on fitting our families’ needs.

Population growth remains a hot topic in Bozeman. The city’s latest report projects nearly a 50 percent population jump within 20 years, with scenarios ranging up to more than 81,000 residents. The trajectory will depend on housing costs, land availability, and how we balance development with the Bozeman way of life. City leaders are crunching the numbers to help guide planning, ensuring that as Bozeman grows, it holds onto the character that draws us all here.

Looking for something new and exciting this week? Check out the Warrior Taste Fest on Friday night at The Commons for an evening of food, drink, and giving back. Downtown also has an Amali Trunk Show at Alara Jewelry, fresh exhibitions at Bozeman Art Museum and Old Main Gallery, plus the Nonfiction Writers Group at the public library tonight for anyone ready to put pen to paper.

As the days grow shorter and Bozeman shifts into fall, there’s no shortage of ways to celebrate the unique blend of creativity, community, and the natural beauty that define our city. Whether you’re out for local produce, exploring art, supporting our students, or just taking an evening walk, Bozeman is alive with possibility.

This has been Bozeman Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
