Getting away from roses, and chocolates, and fine dining for two, how about an anti-Valentine’s Day soirée celebrating queer-flavored desire
Taking place in Bishopsgate Library, the evening will include life drawing with the East London Stripper Collective, performances from drag artists Bolly-Illusion and Saya Tikka, poetry readings from SL Grange and Aimée Lê, a conversation between Jordan Osserman and Jamie Hakim on the depictions of queer desire and digital intimacies, and desire themed photographs, magazines and ephemera from our Special Collections.
