at a glance Our Mission To provide the community with a comprehensive resource guide of gay-owned and gay-friendly businesses & service providers who treat all individuals in a dignified & non-discriminatory manner.
Dear Reader, We are proud to present our 23rd edition of Pink Spots for the East Bay. We are excited that you chose to pick up a copy! We want to thank all of our fabulous readers for your continued support and feedback. And we want to show our appreciation to all of our fabulous members who chose to become a part of this guide. Let’s just make the world a bit more fabulous together, yes? Stop by one of our booths at the many festivals we attend each year and say hi, just follow us on facebook to find out where we’ll be. And check out our events page on our website to find out what’s happening in your neighborhood and where you should be. When you need a product or service, think about all the great folks in our guides who are making a statement and standing up for the LGBTQ community. Show them it matters, and patronize their business. Sincerely,
Kevin Babeaux
