About – Thurst Lounge

About

Thurst Lounge is DC’s only black-owned LGBTQ+ lounge located just north of the historic U Street Corridor at 2204 14th St NW. The lounge was founded to quench the thirst of DC’s black and brown LGBTQ+ community that has not had a space dedicated to their experiences and sensibilities. 

“Thurst is our love letter to DC’s black queer community. We wanted to create a space that represents and honors the unique and culturally rich black gay experience. As a community, we deserve so much more than just special nights or events at spaces that do not center our experience,” says co-owners Brandon Burke and Shaun Mykals.
