Do you want to help create a display at Queer Britain?

WORKSHOPS

Conversion practices are still legal in the UK. Are you interested in learning more about the history of and the campaign to ban conversion practices?

Join Chair of the Ban Conversion Practices Coalition, Saba Ali FRSA and Exhibitions and Displays Manager (Assistant Curator) Beau Brannick to help create a display on the long history of conversion practices in the UK and how the Ban Conversion Practices Coalition have been campaigning for robust and effective legislation that will put an end to conversion practices once and for all.

What are conversion practices? ‘Conversion Practices are treatments, practices or services that seek to change or suppress a person’s sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression, based on the assumption that any sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression is inherently preferable to any other.’ You can find out more about conversion practices at: Ban Conversion Therapy 

We’re looking for 20 intergenerational participants who identify as LGBTQ+ to join us over the course of four workshops at Queer Britain: The National LGBTQ+ Museum. We highly encourage participants to apply from faith-based backgrounds, the trans+ community and anyone who may have experienced conversion practices.

The workshops will help shape a new display as well as provide an opportunity to learn curatorial skills. The sessions take place on the following dates:
