Queer Heritage South: Community Archiving Workshop
13 October - 10:45am
Location: Attenborough Centre for the Creative Arts, Brighton, BN1 9RA
Join Queer Heritage South to explore the vibrant LGBTQ+ history of Brighton & Hove and contribute to a growing digital community archive.
Have you ever wanted to share a story about an object, photograph, flyer, or any item connected to your queer history in the city? If so, bring it along! In this interactive archiving workshop, you will be guided through the process of digitising and cataloging your personal item, which will then be preserved in the Queer Heritage South digital archive.
As we engage in this hands-on workshop, we’ll discuss the value of community archives in preserving often-overlooked narratives, explore the role of language in shaping the queer archive, and celebrate the wide range of objects and ephemera that enrich our understanding of queer history.
