We Need Your Input

The LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District needs your voice!

We’re embarking on an exciting mission to compile a comprehensive Cultural History, Housing, and Economic Sustainability Strategies (CHHESS) report to guide the City of San Francisco to better support the Bay Area Leather and LGBTQ communities.

Your input is pivotal in this endeavor. We are creating an “Asset Map” to highlight the cherished spaces and practices that hold personal significance in your Leather and Queer culture journey in the Bay Area. Your insights will ensure our report reflects the cultural assets that matter most to you and our diverse community.

Rest assured, your responses are confidential and completely anonymous. Your contact information will remain private.

Please don’t miss the opportunity to have your say. Complete the survey, at https://bit.ly/LeatherSurvey, by 11/6/23, and let’s shape a flourishing Leather future together.
