A West Village queer bar makes room for music, dancing and community.
Henrietta Hudson describes itself as a queer bar built by lesbians, with community central to its West Village identity. Its events range across karaoke, drag, dancing and meet-ups rather than sticking to one format.
Choose the programme that fits your night: a performance, a dance party and a community gathering give the same Hudson Street space different rhythms.
