Washington D.C. has many lesbian visibility activities planned this week. A local bar and the LGBTQ+ centre created a programme together. It includes films, music and other events.

A screening of 'Ahead of the Curve' is a highlight. This film follows influential lesbian women from different generations. 'Queeroke' is also on the programme. Visitors can sing karaoke in a lesbian-friendly atmosphere. Organisers say these initiatives highlight lesbian stories.

The activities are part of Lesbian Visibility Week in the United States. This week celebrates lesbian women and their importance in society. Organisers say lesbian women need more attention than gay men.

Participation in these events grows every year. Organisers hope more lesbian women and their friends attend.
