Out & About

Out & About is Tennessee’s monthly gay and lesbian newspaper. Technically, it serves all of Tennessee, but it always has a big focus on Nashville.
Out & About usually has more in-​depth articles than the weekly gay paper (Inside Out). There are lots of ads and bar listings to let you know what’s happening at all of the hot spots. It also has a feature on the Nashville GLBT Chamber of Commerce so you can find out about local businesses and their owners. If there’s a gay or lesbian event, you can usually find coverage of it here. Out & About also has their movie and book reviews, a personal trainer who does a fitness column, and someone who lets you know what’s going on in the art galleries in Nashville.
There was a huge controversy when Kroger was going to distribute Out & About at some of its stores, then it pulled out, now it is available at select locations. It also seems to be available at most library branches which is where I usually pick up a copy.
Out & About is a great source for GLBT information for Nashville and Tennessee. We’re lucky to have such a great paper serving the community.
