LGBTQ+ History Month / Queer on 4

QUEER ON 4
Saturday 1st February
7pm - 11pm

Come and join us as we start our LGBTQ+ History Month projects for 2025 with performer and artist Antony Psaila. We will be delving into the UK TV archives of Channel 4 (as well as other regional and national TV) as part of our Film London / BFI queer archive project and sharing some of our finds, there will be chat, archive to watch, music and even a bit of dancing if you fancy it!

Come early if you want to watch a Channel 4 classic Andy the Furniture Maker from the 1986 Six of Hearts LGBTQ+ documentary series directed by Paul Oremland, this amazing short documentary follows Andy from Essex, a raffish furniture maker, who crafts quite extraordinary pieces from wood he reclaims from waste grounds around London. Andy is a one time rent boy, car thief and a permanent provocateur on London’s 1980s gay scene. Through his story the viewer gets a tantalising glimpse of a time and place where rebellion, transgression and creativity were wonderfully intertwined. With contributions from Derek Jarman, Christopher Hobbs and Royal Academy curator Norman Rosenthal.

See you there!
