What is BEAR IT Zine?

BEAR IT is a quarterly celebration of sexuality and queerness inspired by the unapologetically sexy, socially-conscious DIY magazines (zines) of the 1970s-1990s.

The goal is to take topics that have become too taboo to discuss in public – sexuality, masturbation, body positivity, gender expression and more – and radically celebrate them with artistry, compassion, care and community in hopes of empowering everyone to embrace their fullest sexual selves.

What is Gay4Bareburger?

“At Bareburger, we’ve always believed that what keeps people coming back isn’t just the food, it’s the experience and the sense of connection you create in the space. This partnership is about leaning into that in a real way, creating an environment where people feel seen, included, and part of something bigger. [Gay4Bareburger] (and beyond) is a celebration of community, energy, and individuality, brought together with great food and a space that invites people to show up exactly as they are.” ~ Euripides Pelekanos, CEO + Co-founder, Bareburger
