<div>After nearly 8 years of serving the Ojai Community, the Ojai Pub is permanently closing, last call is Monday, September 28th, 2026. For so many people in Ojai, this little pub was never just a bar. It was an inclusive community space where diverse creatives gathered, strangers became friends, and where people found comfort, laughter, music, food, drinks, and real connection. From karaoke nights to Queer Crafting Raves, the Ojai Pub helped create the kind of belonging that is hard to put into words. Its closing is heartbreaking not only for the community, but especially for the 10 staff members who poured their energy, care, and heart into making it such a special place.

<div>This fundraiser is for the Ojai Pub staff as they navigate the sudden loss of work and the difficult transition ahead. Donations will help these 10 staff members cover essential expenses like rent, bills, groceries, and job transition costs while they figure out their next steps. They have shown up for the community again and again, helping create memories and moments that meant so much to so many. Now it is our turn to show up for them. If the Ojai Pub ever gave you a place to land, laugh, celebrate, or simply feel welcome, please consider donating and sharing this fundraiser to help support the staff during this sudden transition.
