Sapphe Space

When Austa Somvichian-Clausen didn’t see a space for her and her former partner, she decided to make one. The creator of Grotto, a sapphic pop-up in New York’s Chinatown sits down with Greg and Sother to talk about building a space for queer women, what she does when the odd straight guy stumbles into it, and the state of lesbian bars and journalism in the age of apps. Plus, another successful BCB is in the books! Greg & Sother trade stories as they recuperate. Follow Austa on Instagram at @austaclausenFollow Grotto on Instagram and TikTok at @grotto.nycAnd don’t forget, After Dark Confession with Father Greg is coming up again in Brooklyn on 6/27!
