UCL LGBTQ+ Network Lunch - Tuesday, 21st April from 12-2pm in the Conference Room, Bloomsbury Theatre Building

Professor Anthony Smith, LBGTQ+ champion on the Provost’s Senior Management Team, would like to invite all Le***an, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender UCL staff to an informal lunch on Tuesday, 21st April from 12-2pm in the Conference Room, Bloomsbury Theatre Building, 15 Gordon Square WC1H 0AY.

Currently we have the virtual Out@UCL network, A Q***r Space Reading Group and a developing Research Network. If you identify as LGBTQ+ and are not already a member of the informal Out@UCL network, are there things that could make this more useful to you? If you are a member, what else could the network and UCL do to support you better? Lunch will be provided so please RSVP to Fiona Addison [email protected].

Scheduled to coincide with Le***an, Gay, Bisexual, Trans History Month, this event will include short talks on some of UCL’s particularly celebrated alumni. It will also be an opportunity to discuss some of challenges we face when trying to ‘reclaim’ or ‘out’ figures from past who may not have understood themselves in terms of categories such as le***an, gay, bisexual, transgender or q***r.

With contributions from Bob Mills (History of Art Department, UCL), Alex Parsons (English Department, UCL), and Jeffrey Weeks (Emeritus Professor, London South Bank).

This event will take place in the Wilkins Garden Room, UCL. It be followed by a reception. All welcome, booking not necessary.
