Black Queer Lives: Exploring the Archive and Mini-Zine Workshop

Join us at Cambridge Central Library for this event with the BFI team to celebrate LGBTQ+ History Month!
About this Event

Join the BFI for an afternoon of remembering, discussing and dreaming. Screening a selection of archival moving image from the BFI Replay collection ‘Queer Lives’, we look forward to exploring the stories and legacies of those who came before, all while reflecting on what it means to archive for our futures - especially at a time where it is crucial to confront gaps within the archive at present.

This will be followed by a mini zine making workshop - a creative response to the collections, themes discussed and the prompt of 'archiving for our futures'.

Free and all welcome but booking essential.

This event will take place in the EverySpace area on the third floor of Cambridge Central Library, which is wheelchair accessible. There is a baby change and accessible toilet on site. There is Blue Badge holder parking at the Grand Arcade parking.
