GLBT History Museum: The Places We Gathered: A Lesbian Storytellin’, Show & Tellin’, Open Mic Night

To celebrate the incredible success of our latest exhibition, Directory of Dreams, the GLBT Historical Society will host an evening reception that is part mixer, part open-mic — inviting community members to share memories, stories, art, and love of Bay Area lesbian community spaces, nightlife, and businesses here and gone.

Show off your collection of matchbooks from San Francisco lesbian bars past, share a story about the best date you ever had at Full Moon Coffee and Books, recite an ode to your favorite meal from Artemis Cafe! Attendees can sign up for short (5–7 minute) open-mic slots to speak, perform, or present whatever they’d like to add to the night. The floor is yours!

Not interested in taking the mic? Enjoy light refreshments while you network, mingle, and add to our community bulletin board — put up business cards, flyers, or fill out a card with whatever you’d like to share. Or browse photos, ephemera, and materials from Bay Area lesbian businesses on display from our archival collections.
