Come out with us and explore the queer stories of Louisville’s past and present as you eat and drink your way down Bardstown Road, Louisville’s gayborhood! As you stroll through the lush avenues of historic Cherokee Triangle, you’ll taste classic Kentucky bites such as fried chicken, spoonbread, and a Louisville Hot Brown paired with refreshing cocktails (or mocktails). Along the way, you’ll celebrate Queer joy and uncover the diverse history of Kentucky’s Queer folx, from a Black Prohibition-era drag queen to the poets, authors, and activists that paved the way for Kentucky’s LGBTQ+ community.

Bourbon & Belonging supports Queer Kentucky, Kentucky’s only LGBTQ newsroom.
