Long before apps and online spaces, LGBTQ+ bars and clubs helped people find safety, friendship and community.

For Pride Month, COTA employees are getting an inside look at Illuminate: Central Ohio’s LGBTQ+ History, an internal exhibit created with the Columbus Metropolitan Library. One part of the exhibit explores the spaces where LGBTQ+ Columbus gathered, connected and built community.

At its height in the 1990s, Columbus was home to more than 30 LGBTQ+ bars and clubs. From early spaces like The Accord Arts Club to staples such as Summit Station and other gathering places across Columbus, these venues helped shape the city’s LGBTQ+ history.

COTA is proud to help connect people to the neighborhoods and places where the community continues to grow.

Your neighborhood is growing. You should have a say in what comes next.

We’re developing a Transit-Oriented Development Plan for the West Broad Street BRT Corridor — a community-informed roadmap for what gets built around future BRT stations along the corridor.

Join us at one of four upcoming station area meetings in June to share what you want to see in your neighborhood.
