Joe and Nick of OutStories Bristol, the city's LGBTQ+ history project, will tell you about over 300 years of extraordinary queer history.About this Event
Stories will include two men sentenced to death in 1753 for sex in the back room of a pub, a "female sailor boy" in the 1850s, lesbian suffragettes in the early 1900s, the pub that was frequented by gays from a least the 1930s, and the first person in the world to undergo full surgical transition from female to male in the 1940s.
Meet at 2pm outside Brewdog Bristol on Baldwin Street. The walk is about one mile, includes going up Christmas Steps, and ends near Frogmore Street. It will take about two hours.
The tour is free but donations to OutStories will be appreciated.
For practical and road safety reasons, attendance is limited to 15 people. If you register and then decide to not come, please cancel your booking so someone else can take your place. Thanks.
