Good morning, this is your Traverse City Local Frequency for Monday, August 11, 2025.Waking up to a warm August morning with light rain on and off and highs pushing the upper 80s, so plan for humid sunshine breaks, a quick shower or two, and a mild evening in the upper 60s. If you’re headed out early, roads are wet in spots, so take it easy on the commute and keep an eye on changing skies through midday and late afternoon pop-ups. According to UpNorthLive, Traverse City is starting around the low 70s with today’s high near 89 and a warm breeze that will make the bays feel inviting but choppy at times[3].If you want a low-key start to your Monday, the arts are calling. The Crooked Tree Arts Center downtown has two summer highlights open late morning: the Paint Grand Traverse 2025 extended exhibit in the Carnegie Rotunda running through August 22, showcasing plein air pieces painted around our region, and Turning TC in the Cornwell Gallery, a celebration of wooden artworks by local turners that feels perfectly Northern Michigan[7][9]. Over at NMC’s Dennos Museum, Matt Shlian’s kinetic paper sculpture exhibition bridges art, science, and engineering with striking geometry and movement, open from late morning into the afternoon[8].Foodies and farm-fresh fans can swing by the Outdoor Mini Farmers Market at the Village at Grand Traverse Commons from 1 to 5, with baked goods, peak-season vegetables, herbs, and pantry staples under the Piazza pavilion. It’s a great midday stop between errands or a stroll on the Commons trails[4]. For those mixing culture with countryside, local listings note estate and wine tours continuing at area wineries like Black Star Farms today, which pairs nicely with a late afternoon bay drive if the clouds part[2].As evening rolls in, you’ve got live music options within an easy cruise of town. The Dave Keller Band brings soul, blues, and rock to the waterfront amphitheater in Elberta for Jammin Mondays from 7 to just after 9, a good excuse for a sunset over Betsie Bay and an ice cream on the way back[10]. Closer to home, Northern Express listings also flag ongoing gallery shows across the region, from Glen Arbor to Elk Rapids, if you’re curating a quiet Monday night art crawl[8][5].One more to pencil in for this week and weekend: community calendars highlight Swim for Grand Traverse Bay and the Traverse City Dance Project’s outdoor performance at Open Space on the horizon, both signature August gatherings that blend fun with a sense of place along our shoreline[1].This has been Traverse City Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.For more http://www.quietplease.aiGet the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
