Out On An Island: An LGBTQ+ History Through Portraits book and exhibition at Omnibus Theatre, presented by Stonecrabs.
“Out on An Island signifies the first ever project dedicated to local LGBTQ+ oral history on the Isle of Wight. Created in remarkable circumstances, it celebrates a close-knit community surviving together in the face of exclusion, prejudice and misrepresentation. The result is an inspiring collection of interviews from LGBTQ+ people concerning their lives on the Island.”
Learning and Participation Producer Alice Eve recommends…
