In celebration of Wolfe Video’s 30th anniversary, they have donated the best present to the June Mazer Archives!
Wolfe Video, the largest exclusive distributor of lesbian, gay, bi and transgender (LGBT) films, has been in business since 1985. Started by Kathy Wolfe, Wolfe Video is now celebrating its 30th anniversary this year and the company is celebrating in a pretty spectacular way!
Wolfe Video is cementing its legacy through a donation to the June Mazer Lesbian Arvchives by depositing a complete DVD library of every lesbian film Wolfe has released since 1985.
The June L. Mazer Archives is the largest major archive on the West Coast dedicated to preserving and promoting lesbian and feminist history and culture. They create a safe place for women to explore the richness of lesbian history and promote knowledge for future generations to understand more fully their own identity and history.
There are around 100 great lesbian movies that range from classics like Desert Hearts to more recent acclaimed hits like Mosquita & Mari, Reaching for the Moon, Kiss Me and the company’s newest release, Of Girls and Horses.
Angela Brinskele, the board chair for June Mazer Archives said “We’re thrilled to have this incredible trove of lesbian films available to our researchers. We’re extremely grateful to Wolfe Video and founder Kathy Wolfe for this incredibly generous donation to our collection.”
All of the DVDs will be available for researchers at the archives.
Kathy Wolfe said “Supporting our community organisations has always been an important part of our work. Making all of our films available for researchers and historians is very exciting for us and we are truly grateful to the Mazer Archives for all the important work that they do.”
