About

This February half-term, take part in creative workshops to celebrate LGBTQ+ History Month and discover LGBTQ+ histories around the Museum.

13th February - How to Make a Disability Pride Flag
This February half-term, join artist Dani and discover how to create a Disability Pride flag together with your family! This will involve using different art materials and textures in each of the Pride flag colours. A fantastic opportunity learn more about inclusion.

15th February - Create your own signal flags with pride!
During this BSL inclusive event, the whole family can join artist Christopher Sacre to have some fun creating their own Pride maritime signal flags. 

Ships use flags with colours and patterns to send messages. By using the colours of the Pride flag you will discover how to create your very own signal flags. What word or message would you like to send?

Note: this workshop is open to all ages and abilities

17th February - Protest for Rights!
During Rainbow Week, bring your little ones to artist Charlotte's workshop and learn how to make protest posters using pre-painted and coloured papers.

Let's support the LGBTQ+ campaign for rights and learn the importance of inclusion. 

20th February - I was, I am, I will be –  Badges to tell a story of YOU
Badges, pins, ribbons and medallions tell a story about the person wearing them. What can a badge say about you? 

For LGBTQ+ History Month, join artist Ling's workshop and learn how to make a badge about you and your family. Discover how colours, shapes and patterns can tell stories about the wearer.

* The aforementioned workshops are open to all ages and abilities.
