It's surprising that there isn't a dedicated full-service bar for queer women in Los Angeles at the moment. With your support, our goal is to sell out the entire Queer Koalas collection and use the profits to create a lesbian cafe and bar in Los Angeles, California where ALL ARE WELCOME AND FEEL SAFE.
All Queer Koalas are handmade with love one at a time by Kelly Perez.
Historical Inequalities
Throughout history, women have faced disparities in accessing bank accounts, investment opportunities, and fair wages. However, women and individuals across the gender spectrum deserve safe environments to connect and develop their communities. This is where Queer Koalas step in – offering a fresh approach to crowdfunding and involving the LGBTQIA+ community in NFTs and web3 initiatives.
The Vision
A cafe by day and bar by night that centers women and the LGBTQIA+ community, creating safety and inclusion for all. By introducing innovative crowdfunding business models the space will guarantee affordable beverages so that no-one is ever excluded on the basis of financial means. A space that promotes empowerment and connection that goes beyond drinking and hookups.
