This year is a celebration of queer nightlife. NYC nightlife has been the center of queer artistic expression and the foundation of the modern LGBTQIA rights movement. Bars have always been tied to the queer experience, from the 1969 Stonewall Uprising to the creation of the Ballroom Scene, and the rise of Club Kid culture.
TENz spotlights 5 beacons from different areas of Brooklyn nightlife that are keeping the culture and community thriving.
