Out Front Colorado: Since 1976 ... there's no turning back!

From the ugliness of Amendment 2 to the beauty of the Rocky Mountains, Colorado is a portrait of polarity. But what a magnificent portrait it is. We have it all – mountains and prairie, natural wonders and urban landscapes, wildlife and nightlife, with plenty of space and time for both politics and play.

Outsiders may see the state as a sanctuary for the sanctimonious, a conservative stronghold that strangles the spirit of anyone who steps outside of certain conventional boundaries. But Colorado’s LGBT community knows better.

Certainly, the state’s political history is hardly a testament to queer tolerance, let alone inclusiveness. But those are only the headlines. Our real history tells a different story – and Out Front Colorado, the state’s oldest and largest LGBT publication, was there every step of the way.

In 1976, college student Phil Price realized his dream of serving LGBT Coloradans with a publication as diverse as they are when the first issue of Out Front hit stands. Now, 34 years later, Out Front Colorado remains the premier source for LGBT news, entertainment and events in the Rocky Mountain Region.

Take a journey through the pages of Out Front Colorado and four decades of change, progress and the ongoing march toward equality in Colorado.

Since 1976 … there’s no turning back.
