LGBTQ+ History Month Exhibition closing night

The LGBTQ+ exhibition closing night marks the end of a month-long exhibition centring queer life, creativity, and community in London today. In doing so, it brings together the conversations, artworks, and relationships formed throughout the exhibition.

This final evening brings together exhibiting LGBTQ+ artists, organisers, and audiences for reflection, conversation, and celebration. At the heart of the event, a moderated panel discussion explores how queer art can hold contradiction, joy and struggle, love and loss, visibility and survival. Through this conversation, the artists reflect on how creative practice becomes a form of resistance, care, and connection.

Throughout the exhibition, the artworks have formed a living archive of LGBTQ+ presence in the now. As a result, the LGBTQ+ exhibition closing night offers space to sit with these works collectively. Rather than simply marking an ending, the event invites audiences to hear directly from the artists and reflect on what it means to create, exist, and belong as LGBTQ+ people in contemporary London.

Following the panel discussion, the evening will open into an audience Q&A and a relaxed community gathering. In this way, the event becomes an invitation not just to listen, but to connect across difference, experience, and shared space. Overall, the atmosphere is welcoming, informal, and open to all. No prior art knowledge is needed.
