Fun Palaces are have announced their first LGBT+ Fun Palace – an absolutely open and inclusive space for all people; gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, queer, non-binary, straight and beyond. You don’t have to be LGBT+ to attend, or participate in creating it, but it will by and large be a space opened and held by the LGBT+ community.
Fun Palaces is both an ongoing campaign for culture at the heart of every community, and an annual weekend of action – arts, science, craft, tech, digital, heritage and sports events and activities – run by, for and with local communities.
Amie Taylor said “I’m passionate about opening spaces that are accessible to all as far as is possible, in particular a place for the LGBT+ community. I feel it’s important that we open more inclusive spaces as a community, that are welcoming to all. As Fun Palaces are about community and inclusivity with the added bonus of learning from one another, making a Fun Palace felt like the perfect opportunity to open one such space.”
Fun Palaces will be at The Pleasance, London on 6th October 2018.
