Stay Queer. No Matter War. April - May 2023.
During Eurovision, we collaborated with @ukraine.pride and held an exhibition in @lushliverpoolspa
This was a host of work by artist Artur Vovchenko, a queer photographer, multi-disciplinary artist and activist based in Ukraine who has been working to tell the stories of the lives of queer people during the war in Kyiv and Kharkiv.
@iamlittlebrightstar
We are so pleased to announce we recorded over 9000 people in person visit the the exhibition and media coverage that included a segment on @bbcnews
This was a gorgeous project and kept our eyes open to the reason Eurovision was hosted in Liverpool in the first place.
Massive thank you to our partners @ukraine.pride, @liverpoolbidcompany , @weareallout , @action_office.ua and @lushliverpoolspa
