The GayBarchives Project has been working diligently to preserve an often-ignored aspect of our history:
The Gay Bar
For over two years we have researched and documented more than 2000 gay bars gone by as well as several long-time survivors. For most bars we have digitally reconstructed their logos and collected images and articles related to their impact on the evolution of our gay community.
We have also conducted more than 100 video interviews capturing first-hand accounts of life in those gay bars, recording the memories of those who lived through our colorful past. There are several books in the works as well.
In addition, we have built an active community of more than 5000 members who reminisce daily about their clubbing days in our Facebook group.
To date our research has been predominantly self-funded, supplemented by a few contributions from enthusiastic fans of our work.
In order to be able to grow and expand our reach, we need your help.
Many national and international brands have supported LGBTQ+ history projects, including: Stoli, Nike, Mini, Jägermeister, Andrew Christian, Miller Lite and others.
