OUT OF THE MARGINS: Raise Your Banner Workshop

Make your mark on a community timeline banner showing the centuries-long span of Scarborough’s LGBTQ+ history.

Just like the plaques, we’ll commemorate nationally significant events alongside the events that matter most to local LGBTQ+ people.

Inspired by the medieval marginalia of the town’s most famous queer love story - King Edward II’s final goodbye to Piers Gaveston at Scarborough Castle in 1312 - we’ll decorate the edges of our timeline with textile art and fabric painting/drawing. You can suggest a milestone for the timeline, and/or you can help us decorate it - whatever works for you!
