Somber Nights x Bar 1924
Some nights you don't want to be alone. But you also don't feel like being "on."
Somber Nights is a dimly lit, intentional evening built around music, reflection, and low-pressure connection. For heartbreak, burnout, grief, loneliness, holiday blues, or just a heavier day than usual.
The holidays are great for some and tough for others. Maybe you just moved and couldn't make it home. Maybe the long weekend left you feeling a little empty, or you don't really have anyone to share a night with. If that's you, there's a place for you at Somber Nights. We're gathering the Sunday after Thanksgiving, when the long weekend winds down and things can feel a little quiet.
Here's what you'll find at Somber Nights:
🌙 Dim, warm lighting at Bar 1924, Point Loma’s neighborhood craft bar across from Liberty Station
🌙 One complimentary cocktail (or non-alcoholic cocktail) handcrafted by Bar 1924 owner Crosby, who brings his Michelin-starred restaurant background to every glass. Additional cocktails available for purchase.
🌙 Live music artists (to be announced)
🌙 Somber Sounds by Imanni (@uwantaqua) taking us through the rest of the night
🌙 The Writing Station with all the materials you need to put down what you haven’t said out loud, like a note to someone you miss or a thank-you note you never sent
🌙 The Deep End, conversation and reflection cards on every table
🌙 Take What You Need Station, little notes from the universe for wherever you are tonight, books, and more things to hold on to
🌙 The Discovery Tower, 8ft tall walls and a place to share and connect with others
🌙 A wristband system so you never have to say out loud whether you want to talk or not
🌙 Vendor list (to be announced)*
You don't have to do any of it. That's the whole point.
Come alone. Bring friends. Or not. No pressure at all.
Not a party. Not therapy. Something in between. 🌙
