The Unicorn Club

À propos de ce lieu The Unicorn Club

The Unicorn Club on North Meridian Street is Indianapolis's leather and cruise bar, providing the programming and physical infrastructure for the city's leather, bear, and fetish communities. The Meridian Street location is in the near-downtown area, accessible from both the downtown core and the Talbott Street neighbourhood to the north. The bar hosts leather nights, bear events, and fetish-themed programming, and provides the darkroom and cruise-oriented facilities that these communities require and that mainstream gay bars do not offer. The crowd is primarily gay male and defined by shared interest in the leather and cruise culture — from longtime leather community members to men who are new to the scene and are discovering it for the first time. The Unicorn Club's persistence as Indianapolis's leather bar reflects the depth of the city's gay male community: even in a Midwest city of Indianapolis's size and political conservatism, the leather community maintains a dedicated venue.
