Join Margate Pride at Turner Contemporary for a relaxed, drop-in workshop exploring how everyday memories can become a lasting historical record.��Help archive the living history of Margate Pride by creating pages for a collaborative community zine. Using zine-making as a creative introduction to archiving, you’ll work with archival materials, collage, text, and photos printed directly from your phone.��The finished zine will be archived as part of Margate Pride’s new Heritage Hotline project, preserving LGBTQ+ experiences and culture in Thanet from the 1960s onwards. A welcoming space to share stories, make something together, and learn how to get involved with the project.
Turner, Foyle Rooms, 11am - 4.30pm. No experience needed. Free, informal, and drop in.
As Margate Pride starts to build an archive of its history so far, as part of it's Heritage Hotline project, Kavel Rafferty curates a selection of photographs documenting Margate Pride's ten-year history. Including photos by Stephen Daly, Elissa Cray, Tara Li An and more.
Projects Kavel Rafferty. Open daily 25th February until 3rd March, 11-4pm. Late view Saturday 28th until 8pm
Thanks to The National Lottery Heritage Fund & to National Lottery Players, we can continue to work with our community to reflect, celebrate and archive the LGBTQ+ history of Margate and Thanet. Preserving our past and learning for our future.
