For the past five years, merchants and residents in Peninsula have opened up their porches to local musicians for Music on the Porches. If you head over to the tiny village today and wander the streets, you’ll hear music emanating from the porches of various businesses and residences. The event runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Demonstrative workshops will be held at the Bronson Church and the G.A.R. Hall. From noon to 3 p.m. at Bronson Church,, Doug Ungar and Mark Ward will talk about building banjos and show some of the instruments they have made. (Niesel)
