Gay bars have been closing by the hundreds. Jolted by the closing of his favorite local watering hole in Cleveland, Ohio, Greggor Mattson embarked on a journey to 300 gay bars in 39 states to paint a much more complex picture of the cultural significance of these spaces, inside the “big four” gay cities, but also beyond them.
