"Last Call at Maud's is a historical documentary about the longest-running lesbian bar in the city. Opening in 1966, Maud's flourished in the 70's and 80's – providing many women a sense of community they'd always been searching for. Sadly, Maud's shut down in 1989 and this film highlights some of its regulars including Phyllis, Del Marin and Sally Gearheart. This is an important film because, "Last Call at Maud's salutes and preserves an era in history when bars were the only cultural institutions in the lesbian community." (www.frameline.org) Let's see the film, eat some pizza (and feel free to bring your own food/beverages) and let's head over to the fantastic local women's bar in the Mission – The Lexington!!! Supporting women's spaces in the city is important! Join us for this historical film and some quality time with other queer women in the city. Donations at the door are accepted - $5-15!

The exhibit "30 Years at the Forefront," hosted by the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual Transgender (GLBT) Historical Society, uses a significant anniversary to look back and commemorate this anchor SF institution that has become internationally renowned. The exhibit also looks forward and celebrates the landmark legal victory DYKES ON BIKES® recently won, securing full ownership over its name. The gala opening reception will be held at the GLBT Historical Society (657 Mission Street #300 in San Francisco) on May 15th. There will also be a Pride week reception, several panel discussions, and a Soda & Beer Bust (see complete event schedule below). The "30 Years at the Forefront" exhibit invites the general public to revel in the mythic power of DYKES ON BIKES®. Exhibit attendees can even get a feel for riding in the famed contingent by hopping on a motorcycle surrounded by the sights and sounds of past parades. Along with the fun, the exhibit also offers visitors the opportunity to learn more about the organization's ride down a 30-year road: its history, mission, structure, annual event production, and international reach. The exhibit also hopes to spur past and present members of DYKES ON BIKES® to collectively remember and celebrate their history, and in so doing locate and archive otherwise uncollected memorabilia, documents, photographs, and artifacts of the organization's last 30 years.

The exhibit "30 Years at the Forefront," hosted by the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual Transgender (GLBT) Historical Society, uses a significant anniversary to look back and commemorate this anchor SF institution that has become internationally renowned. The exhibit also looks forward and celebrates the landmark legal victory DYKES ON BIKES® recently won, securing full ownership over its name. The gala opening reception will be held at the GLBT Historical Society (657 Mission Street #300 in San Francisco) on May 15th. There will also be a Pride week reception, several panel discussions, and a Soda & Beer Bust (see complete event schedule below). The "30 Years at the Forefront" exhibit invites the general public to revel in the mythic power of DYKES ON BIKES®. Exhibit attendees can even get a feel for riding in the famed contingent by hopping on a motorcycle surrounded by the sights and sounds of past parades. Along with the fun, the exhibit also offers visitors the opportunity to learn more about the organization's ride down a 30-year road: its history, mission, structure, annual event production, and international reach. The exhibit also hopes to spur past and present members of DYKES ON BIKES® to collectively remember and celebrate their history, and in so doing locate and archive otherwise uncollected memorabilia, documents, photographs, and artifacts of the organization's last 30 years.
