Camden & Islington LGBT History Month 2020

by

forum+ is seeking submissions for the Camden & Islington LGBT History Month programme.

LGBT History Month is an annual celebration of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender history held during the month of February. forum+ along with its partners in the boroughs of Camden and Islington will be hosting and promoting a series of events to celebrate the lives and achievements of LGBT people.

Last year’s programme featured over 40 events with a great diversity of subjects and voices represented. Previous programmes have included a very broad range of events including craft workshops, discussions, exhibitions, films, guided walks, plays, performances, commemorations of local LGBT figures, talks and more. We want to continue to bring a fabulous programme of local events and activities across Camden and Islington and would very much like you to take part in the month’s celebrations.

The theme for LGBT History Month 2020 is Poetry, Prose and Plays. Any ideas for events are very much welcome and as always we welcome submissions to the programme regardless of whether they are on theme. If you are interested in organising an event based in Camden and Islington please complete and return the submission form to let us know what events or activities you may be planning and would like to be included in the Camden & Islington LGBT History Month programme booklet.

The absolute deadline for submissions is Friday 6th December 2019. Due to the finite size of the programme booklet, it is best to send in your submission as soon as possible in order to guarantee inclusion. If you would like to discuss any ideas for events, please contact forum+ via 0207 380 5720 or email info@forumplus.org.uk
