Under the Rainbow: The story of GABLES
Seldom do I write a feature in which I am a key player. It was a moment of mixed reaction when I was assigned to write a piece on GABLES of Cape May County, a nonprofit LGBT community group celebrating its 23rd year. Having been an active member of GABLES since , my head was in a scramble wondering on which of its many charitable accomplishments I should focus, which of the countless socials or cabaret shows I should recount, trying to settle on which of the monumental legislative issues I should mention in which GABLES played a contributing role. Yet, with all the excitement in knowing I would be sharing the GABLES stories with others, it was also a sobering moment for me to realize how far we, as a gay and lesbian group, had come in being seen as equals in our community. Here was a moment when Cape May Magazine, an established publication, was turning the spotlight on the group that not terribly elongated ago was chastised, threatened, and even shunned by local print media simply based on the sexual identity of its members.

It&#;s About Time! AC Gets Its First LGBTQ+ Bar in 20 Years
The announcement that a new LGBTQ+ owed and operated restaurant and bar is opening in Atlantic City has to be a source of joy and pride for people who live in one of the most gay-friendly places in the nation.
The ByrdCage will be the first gay club in Atlantic City since Studio Six closed in
The ByrdCage is Coming to Atlantic City
The ByrdCage, located at Atlantic Ave. (formerly the swingers club Role Play Lounge and most recently Good Dog Bar), will be a restaurant and bar and much more, says owner Jason Tell, an award-winning caterer and party planner recognized as Philadelphia Magazine&#x;s Best Party Planner.
Jason has over three decades of experience in the food and beverage industry, having worked in or owning restaurants in Philadelphia, Atlantic Metropolis, and Cape May County.
His concept for the ByrdCage aims to extend a unique and inclusive space for everyone -gay and straight alike-to enjoy.
We are so excited to bring the ByrdCage to life,

What to do in Philly this week
Provincetown and Rehoboth may be among the most renowned gay destinations on the East Coast, but did you know that the Jersey Shore is also home to several LGBT-friendly beach communities? Within just a few hours or less from downtown Philly are stunning stretches of sand that have become both official and unofficial havens for slathering on out and proudness “down the shore.”
Asbury Park’s beach and beyond
Asbury Park has become an LGBT mecca in recent years thanks to a boom in gay-friendly shops, restaurants and nightlife less than 55 miles from New York City. And while there’s no “official” gay beach at this North Jersey hot spot, the sand between 4th and 5th Avenues at Convention Hall has become an unofficial gathering place for all things fierce. In proof, the location is ideal for catching some rays (and waves) and tapping into the mile-long boardwalk attractions – everything from noshing to shopping (there are lots of adj boutiques featuring local designers).
Beyond the beach, the town is bustling with gay-friendly fun, verb kara
