COME BE A PART OF SCARBOROUGH’S QUEER LEGACY
We will be exploring tradtional queer signmaking and looking at it’s history to influence our Queer Creations, exploring colours, shapes, symbols, texts and imagery from Scarborough as the basis of what we’ll be making.
We will begin with experimenting with text and image on our overhead projector to experiment with how our signs and banners might look like, using historical pictures for reference. The banners and signs will then be donated to the Scarborough Museums and Galleries archives as the first modern queer items to be included in the archives.
The workshop will be drop in and you are welcome to come and go at any point! There will be complimentary drinks and music, the workshop is available to all ages, and is totally free.
