RACKED | a lesbian sports bar

The Charlotte Museum is supporting the Rainbow Games and celebrating the herstory of lesbian sapphic bars and sports.

We are creating "RACKED", the ultimate lesbian sports bar for three nights only! It will be a fun few nights for lesbian sapphic women, their friends and allies, and we are bringing in pool tables, setting up a bar, and a comfy lounge area with screenings of only women’s sports. The pool tables will be free for your use; there will be food and drink for sale and a $5 door charge (as a fundraiser for the museum).

We took inspiration from 'The Lesbian Bar Project' which is a limited streaming series telling the stories behind the remaining 32 lesbian bars across the USA and the communities they serve. The series focuses on the critical need to support Rainbow+ community and spaces and how important those spaces are to our communities as safe havens and a way to find each. https://www.lesbianbarproject.com/

And we were also inspired by “Sports Bra”, a sports bar dedicated to women’s sport in Portland, Oregan USA that is dedicated to and only plays women’s sports. And is focused on ensuring patrons feel safe and empowered to relax and have fun. (and its been a huge success!).  https://www.thesportsbrapdx.com/
