Queer + Trans* Art Sector Meeting | 1st July
You Are Not Alone project, commissioned by Focal Point Gallery, 2017
Last week we published a blog outlining our sadness and frustration in the increase of homophobic and transphobic assaults, abuse and violence across the UK.
We suggested putting some of our resources towards trying to help create 10 spaces in which the queer and trans* art sector could gather, talk and find ways of collaborating to address the violence our community is now facing.
Over 300 of you emailed - institutions offering space, individuals offering time, folk wanting to attend! After a week of burning the midnight oil and trying to make sure we attempted to get as far and wide as possible we can now announce the 10 national meetings...
Each Meeting will be held on Monday 1st July, 7pm - 9pm
