In the final installment of the “Identity” series, we move the story of the first LGBTQ+ bar in Vermont, Andrews Inn, into the present day. Though the bar closed its doors in 1984, its legacy was broad and deep for the community of Bellows Falls, affecting lives in the village today and in ways many of us may not even be aware of.

The winter wears on and I am still working away on the next series, Episode 8: Identity, about Andrews Inn - the first LGBTQ+ bar and hotel in the state of Vermont. It was actually the ONLY such place in the state for its decade of existence (1973-1984).
The series isn’t done yet but close! And I thought you might enjoy some clip reels of the material that was funny or was good but wasn’t going to show up in any of the broadcast episodes. So, I put together this short, that I have classily called “The Toilet Teaser”.
If you’ve ever wondered just HOW excited a group of historic preservation nerds get about intact period bathrooms, this is your answer. You’re welcome.
