How to Connect With the Gay and Lesbian Community in Cincinnati

It’s not called the Queen City for nothing—Cincinnati has a royal selection of activities and groups for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender residents through its GLBT Center and other organizations.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. Get centered. Cincinnati’s GLBT Center offer movie nights, Pride festival planning activities and support.

2. Be sporty. In Cincinnati, you’ll find gay bowling, volleyball, softball along with a group called Moving Men which offers outdoor recreation for gay men.

3. Find your girls. The Cinci Lesbian Network provides professional support and social activities.

4. Get in your group. If you work for Proctor and Gamble, join GABLE, the company’s GLBT organization. Or check out Crossport for transgender persons or Wombats (Women of Beauty And Temptation) for bisexual women.

5. Make music. Join Cincinnati Men’s Chorus, the M.U.S.E. women’s chorus or the Queen City Rainbow Band.

6. Be proud. Cincinnati’s Pride festival takes place in June.

7. Cruise the bars. From Adonis to the Yadda Club, Cincinnati has about a half dozen GLBT clubs.
