friday, january 30th

Dear Brimstonians, 

Brimstone will be participating in the Nationwide Shutdown, and will be closed this Friday, January 30th. 

Frankly, we’re horrified. 

We’re horrified by the treatment of immigrants in this country, and we’re horrified that attempts to speak out against that treatment have been met with violence. 

Will shutting off the lights and locking the doors to our business for the day fix anything? No. 

But if anything has the potential to result in meaningful change, it’s collective action. So, this is us, adding our voice to the outcry against discrimination and violence and in support of human rights and free speech.

Rest assured, our hourly employees will be compensated for the hours they were scheduled to work on Friday. We will reopen for 24-Hour Members at 12:01AM the morning of Saturday, January 31st, and will resume our regularly scheduled open hours at 10am on Saturday.

This is not a decision we made lightly, but to remain silent feels like complicity, and this is a way, however imperfect, to take a stand for our values, our community and our country.

We appreciate you all very much. Thank you, as always, for being part of our community.
