Hard Times
Publications > Hard Times
Hard Times is a monthly zine and weekly club night launched in 2009 as a response to the post-crash malaise in Seattle's queer arts scene.
Conceived by Jared Lovejoy, David Richey, and L.A. Kendall, Hard Times paired a free rooftop BBQ happy hour with what The Stranger called "Weimar-era mind fuckery" — giving a community hit hard by the biggest economic collapse since 1929 a place to gather, get creative, and find a way through.
The zine continued for three years.
