(Un)Seen, (Un)Heard: Queering the Map Paisley
Join Chloe and
Clare from LGBT Youth Scotland for this free interactive workshop, to share
your memories associated with places around Paisley. Having partnered with
the National Library of Scotland to create Scotland’s first national archive
dedicated to young LGBTQ+ people’s voices, in this Queering the Map workshop,
participants will have the opportunity to engage with maps as platforms for
storytelling, memory, and reclaiming space. This event aims to celebrate the
big and little everyday moments that are often hidden in traditional
histories of towns and cities and show the LGBTQ+ heritage of Paisley.
(Un)seen, (Un)heard is a 3-year project that aims to understand what life
is like for young LGBTQ+ people growing up in Scotland today, and to reflect
on how life has changed across the generations.
