Good morning, this is your Traverse City Local Frequency for Wednesday, July 9, 2025.
Traverse City is waking up to another vibrant summer day filled with music, sports, art, and plenty of ways to get together with friends and neighbors. Tonight, the legendary rock band America brings their Encore Tour to the Interlochen Center for the Arts at 7:30 PM. This is a chance to catch the Grammy-winning group behind classics like A Horse With No Name and Sister Golden Hair, so if you love nostalgia with your summer evenings, you might want to grab tickets before they’re gone.
If you are feeling creative, there’s the Random Collages From The Scrap Pile exhibition and the Small Works Community Collage project celebrating the legacy of Joe Muer running all day, perfect for art lovers and families alike. Both offer hands-on elements and highlight local and regional creativity. Also, don’t miss the Great Lakes Pastel Society’s Members Small Works Exhibition and the Oliver Art Center’s Annual Summer Member’s Exhibition, with both spaces hosting engaging displays of visual art from across Michigan. If you want a dose of inspiration from our neighbors to the north, A Style All Our Own, showcasing Canadian Woodland Artists, is open and runs through late September.
Families and the science-curious can head over to the Interlochen Public Library at 10:30 AM for Color Our World with Biomimicry, an engaging event that explores how nature’s designs can inspire art and innovation for all ages.
In the afternoon, eco-enthusiasts will want to catch the Wild and Scenic Film Festival, featuring award-winning short films highlighting nature, activism, and conservation. For something uplifting in the evening, check out Jazz, Jokes and Jesus at 7 PM, promising a blend of music, comedy, and community spirit.
Sports fans have two reasons to get excited: the Traverse City Pit Spitters face off against the Kenosha King Fish at 7:05 PM, and it’s 80’s Night at the ballpark, so dig out those retro threads and enjoy some family-friendly fun and maybe a little nostalgia on the side.
If live music and local flavors are more your speed, Dune Bird Winery offers music tonight from Zinnia Dungjen, and Black Star Farms continues its series of summer estate and wine tours. For those who want to take their relaxation to new heights, even Goat Yoga is back at Black Star Farms—with goats guaranteed to lighten up your yoga practice and your mood.
As Traverse City enjoys summer’s peak, it’s also a good moment to remember our neighbors in Wexford County after the fireworks tent fire north of Cadillac over the weekend. No one was hurt, but authorities are still looking for information, so if you know anything, reach out to Michigan State Police at the Cadillac Post.
Finally, book lovers and families can end the evening with a bit of magic at 10:30 PM, when the Patchwork Pear Performers bring circus arts to the summer reading event—an imaginative way to close out your night, whether you’re young or just young at heart.
That’s your Traverse City Local Frequency for today. Enjoy the sunshine and all the energy summer brings to our community. This has been Traverse City Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
