The Hellenic Museum's much-loved event returns for a fourth year with a divine twist inspired by LGBTIQA+ History Month and new international exhibition Rituals: Gifts for the Gods.
For millennia ancient Mediterranean myths and histories have been a popular medium through which human diversity is explored. Today LGBTIQA+ communities are breathing new life into these narratives uncovering threads of sexuality gender and queerness within them.
Join us for a fun light-hearted evening of history talks creativity and connection celebrating contemporary understandings of queerness through the lens of antiquity. Experience galleries by night enjoy a drink take part in a communal ritual and hear inspiring talks from respected historians delving into the divine spiritual and often queer dimensions of ancient religion.
