Our Special Exhibition Programme includes:
Queer Print, 4 February – 26 July
Delving into the Queer Britain archive - donated by people from across the UK - this exhibition showcases magazines, flyers, posters, zines and ephemera to tell the story of how LGBTQ+ people came together, told stories and organised through radical and alternative print cultures in a pre digital age.
From Exclusion to Inclusion, 10 June - 23 December
In collaboration with LGBTQ+ Veterans Charity, Fighting with Pride, this display tells the story of veterans that were dismissed from the armed forces at a time when LGBTQ+ people were banned from serving.
Trans is Human, 5 August – 29 November
This exhibition, produced by trans couple Jake and Hannah Graff and featuring portraits by renowned photographer Mariano Vivanco, celebrates the stories of thirteen inspiring, familiar and very ordinary transgender people from across the UK.
Everyone Involved by Ian Giles, 21st October – 15th November:
An immersive installation and film featuring ‘A Gay Song’, which is heralded as the first LGBTQ+ protest song recorded onto vinyl in 1972. Artist Ian Giles reformed the original band to re-record the song 52 years after its inception, in a cross generational gesture of thanks and an example of the living legacy of the gay liberation movement in the UK.
