All genders, sexualities, gender expressions, ENM styles, etc. are encouraged to attend our version of San Francisco speed dating.

The White Horse Bar: Established in 1933, the White Horse is the oldest continuously operating gay bar in the nation and a location of significant events during the ongoing struggle for equality. While people of all orientations are welcome here we ask that everyone respect that this venue centers the LGBTQ+ community, its long history, and its rich culture. Thank you!
