// RADICAL QUEER CRAFT EXHIBITION
Friday 20th February (7 - 11pm) - Saturday 21st February (11am - 5pm)
Olive Bar, The Gregson Community & Arts Centre, Lancaster LA1 3PY
Queer By Gum CIC is inviting local LGBTQ+ artists, crafters and makers to take part in Radical Queer Craft, a 2 day pop-up exhibition hosted at Lancaster Olive Bar.
This exhibition is part of our wider Radical Queer Craft project: a year-long programme of sustainable craft workshops, skill-sharing and community events focused on reuse, repair, upcycling and queer self-expression.
// About the Exhibition
Radical Queer Craft celebrates craft as a tool for resistance, care and community.
We’re interested in work that responds to themes of:
• Reuse, repair, upcycling and repurposing materials
• Sustainable and anti-fast-fashion practices
• Queer identity, gender expression and embodiment
• Craft as activism, care, survival and connection
• Resource-sharing, DIY culture and collective making
The exhibition will run across one evening and one day, creating a temporary accessible, informal and social space where art, craft and community meet.
