On Saturday from 11 a.m. until 11 p.m., Peninsula hosts the seventh annual Music on the Porches, an event that features both musical performances and workshops. You can catch local musicians playing places like the Log Cabin Gallery and Bronson Church. This year, in addition to the 20-plus music acts performing throughout the Village, the Peninsula Foundation Inc. with the support of the Ohio Arts Council will offer free workshops throughout the day.

It all culminates with a concert at G.A.R. Hall at 8 p.m. featuring the Speedbumps. A few events are ticketed (and the Speedbumps show is sold out) but most are free. Consult the website for a schedule and for more information.
