The new documentary film project Free Beer Tomorrow will be screening at the OU Baker Center Theater on Monday, October 29 starting at 7:00 PM.  The film will be free and open to the public.  Free Beer Tomorrow is a documentary film project that tells the story of Jack’s/Summit Station, Ohio’s longest running lesbian bar. With interviews from Peter Brown — a classically trained musician turned bar owner — to pioneering LGBTQ+ lawyer and legal scholar, Rhonda R. Rivera, and former patrons running the gamut of tap dancers, professional women’s football players, feminist activists, bartenders and drag kings, the film explores lesbian culture in an era where bars were one of the few safe-havens from an oppressive and homophobic world.

There will be a Q&A discussion after the screening with the directors/producers Julia Applegate and LuSter Singleton.

Event sponsors include the Athens County Foundation and the Survivor Advocacy Outreach Program, in collaboration with Ohio University’s Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program and the Departments of Political Science, Geography, Sociology and Anthropology, History, and English.
