Out & Wild Black History Month Event
Join us for a night of Spoken Word to celebrate Black History Month and celebrating the theme for 2026 ‘Honouring our Communities’.
There will be an hour of acts followed by drinks at Yotel London City in Farringdon.
Donations will go to The Common Press, a not-for-profit queer community venue. As London's first consciously queer intersectional bookshop, they provide a sanctuary and third space for LGBTQIA+ literature, arts, culture, and community, creating space for queers to gather, connect, and belong, both during the day and into the night.
This event has been made possible thanks to a Pride in London Unity Fund grant and is supported by Intermedia.
Open to all.
