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.
