Good morning, this is your Traverse City Local Frequency for Saturday, July 19th, 2025.The summer rhythm is in full swing here in Traverse City, and today is bursting with ways to get outside, celebrate the arts, and connect with community. If you want to start your day fresh, don’t miss the Sara Hardy Downtown Farmers Market running from 8 to noon in Parking Lot B at Cass Street and East Grandview Parkway. The market’s the heartbeat of summer Saturdays, overflowing with the best of Traverse City’s farm bounty and artisan foods. Or perhaps take a quick drive out to the Empire Farmers Market, open from 9 to 1, for a small-town stroll and more Leelanau-grown produce to fill your basket.If art is calling your name, you’re in luck. The extended Paint Grand Traverse 2025 exhibit opens at 11 at the Crooked Tree Arts Center’s Carnegie Rotunda. This gorgeous display features work by artists who spent the week painting the landscapes and Lake Michigan shoreline of our region, capturing the summer light we all love. If you wander into the Dennos Museum Center after 11, you can catch both the innovative Matt Shlian paper art installation and “A Style All Our Own,” which showcases the intriguing art of Canadian Woodland artists and delves into a pivotal movement in Indigenous Great Lakes culture.There’s activity for animal and sports fans too. This evening at 7:05, Turtle Creek Stadium welcomes the Battle Creek Battle Jacks for a Pit Spitters baseball game—tonight’s twist is “Dino’s in the Dugout,” so expect prehistoric family fun between innings. If orchestral music is more your style, make the drive over to Interlochen as the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, led by Jader Bignamini, brings the power of Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess to Kresge Auditorium at 7:30.If you’re ready for some laughter, the City Opera House downtown is hosting the Bar Time Stories Summer Comedy Tour, also at 7:30. With top headliners from Michigan and beyond, this promises punchlines as crisp as a summer night, making it a perfect pick for date night or a friends’ getaway.For the late-night crowd, DJ Ricky T is spinning at Encore 201 from 9 until 2. Whether you want to dance till dawn or just enjoy people-watching, it’s the city’s weekend hub for music and good vibes.For families, community events are scattered throughout the region: book signings, kids yoga in the vineyards, open-air exhibitions, and an afternoon Pirates of Penzance performance round out a festival-like day that connects neighbors and visitors in Traverse City’s welcoming spirit.That’s your Local Frequency for today—embrace the sunshine, explore something new, and savor all that Traverse City offers.
