Queer Documentary Discussion & Lesbo Bingo with LuSter Singleton and Julia Applegate

Free Beer Tomorrow: Documenting the History and Culture of Ohio’s Longest Running Lesbian Owned and Operated Bar

In a casual format, filmmakers and storytellers Julia Applegate and Luster P. Singleton will discuss the creation of their upcoming documentary Free Beer TomorrowFree Beer Tomorrow tells the story of Jack’s A Go-Go/Summit Station – Ohio’s longest-running lesbian owned and operated bar. In the process of making the film Applegate and Singleton meet former professional women’s football players, lesbian tap dancers, feminist activists, pool sharks, bartenders and drag kings. They also explore the emerging crisis of loneliness and social isolation among elder lesbians in the context of the disappearance of lesbian centric community spaces. 

Following this conversation will be Lesbo Bingo, Bingo made for and celebrating lesbians. Bingo cards can be purchased at the door, and all proceeds will go towards the making of the documentary.
