History Can Be Queer | Youth Event

Are you an LGBTIQA+ young person or ally aged 16-25?

Join us this Pride Month to explore queer history!🌈

Ever wondered what it’s like to be LGBTIQA+? What was it like 40 years ago, or 100 years ago? Are you curious to know why a pub called the Stonewall Inn is important? Do you know when the rainbow flag was first flown? Ever heard of a pink triangle? Now’s your opportunity to learn in a safe space with others. Together we will create a timeline of key moments in the lives of LGBTIQA+ people. Join co-facilitators Emma Hofmeyer (she/her – they/them) and Allison Trethowan (she/her) for this free session.
