We are pleased to announce that on the 10th February 2017 we will again be one of the national hubs for OUTing the Past: The National Festival of LGBT History.
To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the partial decriminalisation of homosexuality, the theme for this year’s festival is ‘Law, Citizenship and PSHE*’ (*Personal, Social and Health Education). This year we are holding an evening event featuring four speakers, whose presentations share recurring themes of theatricality, visibility and self-identity.
The festival event will take place between in the Museum’s Learning Centre, Seminar Room 5. Each presentation will last 40 minutes (including a short Q&A where possible), with a 20 minute break in the middle. This is a free, non-ticketed, drop-in event. Entry is on a first-come, first-served basis.
