Girl Bar | Gay Lesbian Women's Girl Nightclub Dance Bar
 
 

In 1990, Sandy Sachs (reclining) and Robin Gans moved from New York to Los Angeles, only to find lesbian nightlife a little lacking. That year they opened Girl Bar, with an emphasis on hot DJs and a sexy and very visible clientele. Not a pair to rest on their laurels, they've expanded their sapphic domain to Girl Bar nights at clubs in Phoenix and Chicago, and to Palm Springs, Calif., where they cofounded the annual Girl Bar Dinah Shore Weekend, the largest lesbian event in the world. Sachs (who was the inspiration for L Word character Dawn Denbo, played by Elizabeth Keener) and Gans's most recent joint venture is Murano Restaurant & Lounge.

WNBA franchise teams with lesbian nightclub

The WNBA’s Los Angeles Sparks are teaming up with the Los Angeles lesbian bar Girl Bar to actively promote the team to the nightclub’s gay customers. A Sparks pep rally is scheduled at the club Friday night. The event will include an opportunity for team members to meet their fans and sign autographs. "This is a great move for the Sparks," said Girl Bar cofounder Sandy Sachs. "They recognize and are reaching out to the very core of their fan base, and these fans could not be happier." For more information, contact Girl Bar at (877) 447-5252.
