Gay Columbus: Explore the "Big Little City"
Short North and Clintonville kind of sound like names of two new shows
in next season's hit TV line up, but they're actually the places to be
if you're gay and visiting Gay
Columbus, Ohio. As the 15th largest city in the nation, Columbus is
home to a healthy and happy gay community, many of which congregate in
these two neighborhoods. The Short North has a number of gay pubs, art
galleries, a popular gay and lesbian center, nightclubs, coffee shops
and an annual gay and lesbian theater festival in September. It's gay
pride all year round with businesses vying for the gay dollar by
donning the famous rainbow flag. Clintonville is more of the lesbian
hangout for the ladies. This part of Ohio ranks among the highest per
capita donations to LBGT political causes in the USA. Way to put your
money where your heart is, Columbus.
