Our state represents what it means to be American: no matter who you are or where you come from. We all deserve a chance to dwell in harmony and find others with whom we can distribute solace. With so much diversity packed into such a compact space, it’s no surprise that we have historically had one of the most thriving queer communities in the country.
Now that Pride Month is in full swing, it’s the perfect time to celebrate the spaces that foster connection, belonging, and identity. LGBTQ bars are more than just places to suspend out — they are protected havens where queer people are not alone. Before apps enjoy Grindr made their way into the world, the “gay” bar was the only place people found connection.
