01 / The story of this place

Make time for these

Ghost Light has been around for almost a decade, with a Tuesday songwriter open mic and Thursday karaoke as regulars. After a rough 2026 (rising costs and an expensive rooftop HVAC failure), it went mostly dark in August to rethink its hours and programming, then brought shows back in late September 2026.
