The London Salon: queer night scenes
UCL Urban Lab posted a photo:
Curated by UCL Urban Laboratory, this evening at the Museum of London queerly reimagined the 1931 Beaux Arts Ball in New York, a famously peculiar moment in urban history.
We celebrated the ways LGBTQ+ people and communities create night-spaces in the city, thinking about how LGBTQ people have contributed to urban change in London, as well as the specific challenges and opportunities LGBTQ communities face in queering the capital at night.
The evening was hosted by Dr Sharon Husbands (Naked Boys Reading, Ask Dr Shaz) and featured performances and provocations from:
Travis Alabanza
Chardine Taylor-Stone
Planning Out and Friends of the Joiners Arms
Dan de la Motte
Fabulous Façades (Ben Campkin, Laura Marshall, Zia Forrai, Gabrielle Basso Ricci, Sebastian Buser and Thomas Kendall)
Curated by Ben Campkin and Laura Marshall (UCL Urban Laboratory) in partnership with the Museum of London, City Now City Future, a season of ideas, debate and inspiration.
