After more than a year and a half, a popular Portland venue is finally reopening Friday night.

One Longfellow Square is back in business.

For nearly 20 months the venue was closed because of the pandemic, but thanks to a huge crowdfunding effort, the show is back on.

“We couldn’t be here without the support the community, multiple fundraisers along the way, people just spreading word of mouth, only able to reopen today because of all the support we’ve received over the past year and a half,” One Longfellow Square Interim Executive Director Jeff Beam told our news partners at CBS13.

Everyone inside is required to show proof they’re fully vaccinated against COVID and wear masks, unless actively drinking, eating or performing.
