LGBT+HUSET is the queer community hub in Aarhus, in a ground floor space on Skolebakken near the harbour front. It is a house rather than a venue: a living room, meeting rooms and a programme, run by volunteers with a small staff.
What it does splits three ways. There is counselling and support, including a free advice service and Checkpoint, where you can get tested. There are regular social groups, among them a games café, a crafts club, a coffee morning and a mentor scheme that pairs queer people with each other. And there is outward-facing work: courses, talks and consultancy for schools and workplaces.
Most of the other queer groups in the city meet here, and the house keeps an index of the rest. That makes it the obvious first stop for anyone new to Aarhus and looking for the scene beyond the bars. Groups can borrow the rooms.
The office works by appointment, so arranging a visit beats turning up.
