About this place Queer Memoir

Queer Memoir is a storytelling series in New York where LGBTQ people get up and tell true stories from their own lives. It's not a bar or a fixed venue. Shows move around the city, often in the Lower East Side and Brooklyn, and sometimes run as themed nights or online. It's a good way to see a different side of queer New York than the club scene: small rooms, a seated audience and a mix of first-timers and regulars on the mic. Check the website for upcoming dates and venues, since there's no regular weekly slot.

This book store already has limited hours, 6 hours 5 days a week. I went on Sunday when it should have been open. The receptionist at the ground floor said it was closed for today. If they have enough staff to tell customers that the store is closed, they should update it on Google maps too.

Such a hidden gem. One of the best LGBT bookstores in NYC and on the east coast. Really great selection that is updated often. Everyone who works there is very kind and welcoming. Make sure to check out their events!
