Sometimes the exact year of closure is difficult to determine listed years are probably correct +-1. If you’re not yet a reader, here’s my tabulation of lesbian bar closures since 2006 based almost completely on information from Lost Womyn’s Space. If you’re the author, I’d love to correspond with you, even anonymously. It’s impossible to contact the author: the blog is anonymous, there’s no “About” section, and comments are disabled. I’ve been reading the blog Lost Womyn’s Space for a while now, but it’s proving invaluable to track what the author ruefully calls “the Great Lesbian Bar Die Off.” You can read about my interest in lesbian bars here.
