WALNUT CREEK \u2014 Tucked behind a 7-Eleven, down an unsuspecting street in Walnut Creek is the \u201conly LGBTQ bar in Contra Costa County,\u201d a decades old institution with a story of resilience.<\/p>\n

Opened Dec. 16, 1976, by siblings John and Steve Crovo as The Hub, Club 1220 at 1220 Pine St. has changed with the times. Where same-sex dancing, DJs and drag queens were once prohibited by the city at the club\u2019s inception, a brightly lit dance floor, thrumming music and lively programming of performances and events now take place daily.<\/p>\n

What hasn\u2019t changed over Club 1220\u2019s 50 years is the need for community spaces where lesbian, gay, transgender and queer identifying people can feel at home, said Holotta Tymes, who began working at the bar in the 1990s and bought the space in 2020 with her husband, Robert, with financial support from friends.<\/p>\n

Club 1220 has been a mainstay through attempts to ban lesbians and gay men from teaching in schools, the HIV\/AIDS and COVID-19 epidemics, the fight for marriage equality and LGBTQ rights, and economic downturns.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough the community has changed, this bar was really instrumental in the queer movement and everything surrounding our community for many years,\u201d Tymes said. \u201cI have always felt like 1220 was home. It\u2019s unlike any other queer space that I have spent a lot of time in. It\u2019s really just home.\u201d<\/p>\n

Running a bar, especially one catering to a smaller portion of the population, still isn\u2019t easy, Tymes said. Rocks and slushies may no longer fly through Club 1220\u2019s windows and door, but they still field bigoted online reviews. And competition for customers have only intensified with the creation of online dating apps and the broader acceptance of the LGBTQ community, Tymes said.<\/p>\n

The Bay Area News Group recently spoke with Tymes about the ups and downs of running Club 1220, the storied history of the venue and the lasting importance of queer spaces. The following has been edited for length and clarity.<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong> Why did the original owners want to open a queer bar?<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

A:<\/strong> John and Steve are queer. And they have other family members that are queer as well. It was a tough time to meet people and John just really wanted to have a safe space where people were able to get together as a community to figure out a path forward for that community.<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong> Running a small business in and of itself is already challenging, we know that. Are there elements to running a small business that are either easier or more challenging with it being specifically a queer space?<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> It is definitely more challenging. I own another small business that I\u2019ve had for 27 years, so I already was familiar with how difficult running a small business is. A queer space is definitely harder. We make up roughly, depending on who you talk to, about 8-9% of the population. So, we have that as a dedicated clientele and then we probably maybe have another 10% of people who are just going in because it\u2019s a nice space or they\u2019re an ally.<\/p>\n

A bar in our area would have 100% of the population because they would have all the straight identifying people, but also queer people who would go into there because in the Bay Area, queer people are comfortable in a lot of spaces.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

I\u2019m glad that we have spaces that are queer friendly. But it\u2019s difficult to make people understand there\u2019s a big difference between being a queer space where it\u2019s advertised, and being a queer-friendly space where we\u2019re welcoming your queer dollars into a straight environment.<\/p>\n

That is an uphill battle and it\u2019s getting better. Everybody should have a variety of places to go or things to do. If you only went to one space, it would be boring. That\u2019s not how life works. You don\u2019t eat McDonald\u2019s every night. But trying to make sure that we do keep that clientele has not really been the easiest.<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong> What does fighting that battle for clientele look like?<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> I\u2019m very vocal about the fact that when you spend your queer dollars in a queer space that goes right back into the queer community. So fighting for it is just trying to make sure that we are supporting the queer community as they\u2019re supporting us and that that money is reflected in where and what we do.<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong> Do you remember what it was like the first time you went into Club 1220 and discovered it? What was the vibe like?<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> Well, that was the 90s. It was much more busy than it is now. I went in on a happy hour on a Friday. And happy hours were pretty busy then, and although I had been around in other gay bars for a number of years, I walked in and it was very much like walking into a gay \u201cCheers.\u201d Everybody was friendly. I remember meeting people, some that I\u2019m still friends with, that I\u2019ve been friends with for more than 30 years.<\/p>\n

It was a friendly atmosphere, people hanging out and drinking and having a nice time and nice conversation.<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong>\u00a0 So was it an easy decision for you to buy the club? What was that dilemma like for you?<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> It was expensive. And it wasn\u2019t something that was really on my radar. I already own another small business that I work way too much in, but we started hearing that there were offers. John was always very frank with staff on where things sat. John would always say the bar was up for sale, but I would never take it seriously. But when it looked serious, John had been in town and he and I were sitting in what we call the Happy Hour corner and he told me that it would mean the world to him if I bought the bar.<\/p>\n

I had never even remotely thought about it, seriously at least. And I already knew how difficult it was to run a bar. But when I heard that there were offers and I knew that the offers were not necessarily going to keep the bar queer, I thought long and hard about it. So I begged, borrowed and stole from everybody that I possibly could and within a week we came up with enough money.<\/p>\n

I asked my husband if he would kill me if I bought the bar and Robert said, \u201cas long as you don\u2019t have a heart attack, I\u2019m good.\u201d So that has been our running joke since we bought it. We literally called all of our friends. One of the other performers at the bar cashed in their retirement to help us out.<\/p>\n

I wouldn\u2019t necessarily say that I regret it, but I question what the hell am I doing? But then we have a lot of young, queer people and a lot of the young, non-binary, trans community that come in. And even when I\u2019ve had a horrible day, I go in and someone will come up to me and say, \u201cI\u2019m really happy 1220 is still here,\u201d and for me, that makes up for the amount of headaches and stress.<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong> Tell me about why places like Club 1220 are still important.<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> We are really lucky in the Bay Area, because the Bay Area is much more accepting, but just because the Bay Area\u2019s accepting doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that family and friends are accepting. I came out of the closet 20 million years ago and I can\u2019t imagine not being able to be myself, but I am seeing the same type of thing happen with our younger generation.<\/p>\n

Although I think it\u2019s easier to come out as queer or non-binary or trans here, it doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that family is accepting and sometimes we have to choose who our family is. I think Club 1220 has become family to a lot of people who still are not comfortable with their family or comfortable in their skin. It\u2019s allowed people to express themselves in ways that you may not be able to express yourself to your family and your friends. You still want to go into an environment where you don\u2019t have to explain yourself. And I think it gives courage to people to live authentically.<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong> Being the \u201cOnly Queer Bar in Contra Costa County\u201d is a cool title but it also seems a bit lonely. Do you wish there were more spaces like yours near you?<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> 100%. I do wish we had other queer spaces, even if they\u2019re not queer bars. I wish there was more for the community to be a community.<\/p>\n

When it comes to the political climate out there in the world, not Walnut Creek but out there, it\u2019s tough. Like on social media, you can hide behind a keyboard and say whatever you want to say regardless of how hurtful or hateful it is. Their comments affect people. It puts people back in the closet. It forces people to question their identity, as far as coming out trans or non-binary, when there\u2019s so much hate out there.<\/p>\n

So yeah, I wish in general, and I don\u2019t mean necessarily in Walnut Creek, that there were more safe, queer spaces for our community.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not an easy thing. I talk to queer bar owners quite regularly and we\u2019re all in the same boat. And I would panic about it if bars in general were not in that same boat. But it just escalates how much more difficult it is for a queer space, having a smaller portion of the population coming into your space.<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong> What are some highlights or something uniquely special about running Club 1220?<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> I have to say, as generic as this sounds, being able to just walk into the bar and have smiling faces and people genuinely happy to see you, that is probably one of the things that I take in when I come in.<\/p>\n

I might have had to do payroll that day or rent or whatever, but literally when I walk in and see the note on the door saying \u201cWelcome home,\u201d or I know that people are genuinely happy to be there or, when we have an event and the event is successful and it is packed, it feels like everything is worth it. I\u2019m not looking at dollars, but I\u2019m looking at the fact that it\u2019s crowded and people genuinely want to be there.<\/p>\n
