"When I moved to Denver in 1996, there were over 200 lesbian bars across the country, each a beacon of refuge, though not always safe. Now, 28 years later, only 20 remain. The world has shifted and so have we."
"Working in these bars, the price of rent has gone up in the last 10 years. The decline of lesbian bars across the country, even legendary ones like San Francisco's Lexington Club, have to do with neighbourhoods being bought and sold."
"If we were to have a third shutdown, I wouldn't make it. During the shutdowns and prior, we never were given aid to small businesses. The city of Denver has been silent."
"After nearly three decades serving this beautiful Denver community, it is my decision to close this chapter of my life called Blush & Blu."
