Reclaimed Love. Reclaimed History.
Storytelling is resistance. Art is healing. Together, we reclaim both love and history while resisting erasure by telling stories. Join us for an evening of remembrance, joy, and rededication honoring the history and culture of sapphic identities in Colorado. This gathering brings together art, storytelling, and community to reclaim histories that have too often been erased. The program will highlight an iconic work of art connected to the historic Three Sisters bar, alongside a love poem inspired by the artwork itself. We will reflect on the history of the bar within Colorado’s lesbian cultural legacy.
A special thank you ceremony will honor the Archiving Committee, artist D.D. LaRue Reich, and Julia Bonde, whose care and craft helped restore and frame this artifact, ensuring this beloved piece was preserved and can inspire future generations. The evening will also include a presentation on the history of women loving women in Colorado and an exhibit at The Pearl from 8:00 - 9:30 p.m. Help us fundraise, including an auction featuring copies of Lesbians in Colorado and other meaningful artifacts. This event serves as both a rededication of lesbian culture and a fundraiser benefiting The Center.
