UK’s 1st LGBTQ+ Museum
Marking 50 yrs since the 1st UK #Pride march in 1972, #QueerBritain opened in 2022. Organised by the #GayLiberationFront male homosexuality was at the time, only partly legal & queer lives remained marginalised by law, media & society. In response to decades of exclusion, the #Museum was founded to create a permanent space to raise visibility, promote & preserve #GayPride.

#LGBTQ+ refers to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer & more. #QueerBritain is the UK’s 1st & only national #LGBTQ+ #Museum. Opened in 2022, it showcases #Queer histories & cultures through permanent & rotating exhibitions. A registered #Charity, the admission fee is based on a “pay what you can” model, but a £10 donation is suggested to support this independent space.

#QueerBritain invites everyone to engage in their #Exhibitions, #ArtistTalks, #PanelEvents & #WritingWorkshops. Supported by a dedicated team of volunteers who run tours & events, exhibitions like #WeAreQueerBritain uses photos, objects & personal stories to narrate over a century of #QueerLife. It's storytelling through interactive, people-centred displays.

Winner of the 2022 #BestSmallMuseumProjectAward for its “bold attempt to celebrate #QueerHistory in all its forms”, #QueerBritain aims to reclaim, preserve & inspire their history & culture. Located in a repurposed Railway building within the thriving #KingsCrossCulturalDistrict, visitors describe it as a place where they feel “represented & seen”, a long-denied LGBTQ+ truth.
