The future home of Hearth & Den Social Lounge in Greater Cincinnati/NKY. An LGBTQ+ social lounge for everyone. More than a bar. More than a club. Gather. Unwind. Get Wild. https://www.hearthandden.com https://linktr.ee/HearthAndDen
We have started a GoFundMe fundraiser to try to gather some startup capital. We do have some funds of our own which we will be putting in, but it won't be enough. This won't likely be everything we need, but it would be an amazing start. GoFundMe: gofund.me/7c42ea39c

Definitely recommend the Empanada'a Box in Covington. So good!
So, we located a place and toured it today. We really love it. It could be perfect for what we're envisioning. We will need to get it rezoned and many other things. Even if this place gets snatched up at least we know what we're looking for. We encourage you to share the gofundme! Thanks all!
Chiitan loves transgender people 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Even a plain statement like this now brings slander and insults, but I think a society where people can live happily as themselves matters more than silence, so I will keep saying it until the account is gone. love everyone🤍
Lionesses keep the male lions in check out in the wild. I’d love to see women doing similar things here in society.
It is Spooky Month! This is our favorite time of year. Really hoping it cools down at some point! #Halloween #hearthandden #spooky
We would love it if you could spread the word around. Let's make this place happen! #furry #gofundme #pup #lgbt

TIL Bluesky's profile and banner picture sizing is finicky.
Exciting that we may have found a place. Checking on zoning and the like. More details to follow as we get them!
And now we have a landing page! Eventually I'll get an actual web designer but at least it's something for now! www.hearthandden.com
Hearth and Den
What is this place? Hearth & Den will be a place for LGBTQ+ people to come and relax in the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area. You can be yourself. We will be open throughout the day for anyon...

We've had a few folks ask how to describe our concept so I've been starting to think of H&D like a cruise ship lounge. Much of the day the appeal is hanging out and relaxing and talking with others or playing games. Then they transition into having events like trivia before moving into a night
Taking a look around Bellevue, KY. It's a lovely area! Love seeing the pride flags and the BED is a fun idea! Definitely a location we're considering.
Had a call with a business coach and I'm even more excited. She's quite nice and knowledgeable, so I think we're going to be going in the right direction! Now to find a suitable location. Always looking for advice. If anyone has suggestions on LGBTQ-friendly areas in NKY, let me know!
First obstacle: Liquor Quotas! Today I learned both Ohio and Kentucky limit their liquor licenses. So... Yeah, that's something to contend with and may mean not having alcohol. I'm not sure how important that is these days. There are more and more of us who aren't big alcohol drinkers.
One thing I want to be very clear about with Hearth & Den: This would be an 18+/21+ LGBTQ+ space, and everyone who respects the community is welcome. Gay, bi, lesbian, queer Trans and non-binary (Trans Rights!) Furries Pups Leather Nerds Gamers Drinkers and non-drinkers
I've been having this idea for awhile now. I think there is definitely a place for a LGBTQ+ social lounge, a place to come and hang out during the day, grab a coffee, meet up with friends, maybe make new friends, play some games, even work remotely while being amongst your people.
