Make time for these

The Grand Ledge Sun Theatre opened in downtown Grand Ledge in 1935, according to Cinema Treasures. The town's movie history goes back to Sackett's Opera House and the silent-era Vaudette, where a pianist played along with the films live. The Sun shows new releases that open on Fridays, every ticket is $8, and the house is available for rentals. It's raising money for a renovation campaign called Shine Bright. It's open Wednesday to Sunday with 7 p.m. evening shows and 3 p.m. weekend matinees, and Treasure Trekkers plays October 9-22, 2026.
