Celebrating Queer Migration Stories

Fri 27 February 2026 | 7pm – 11pm
Queen’s House, Royal Museums Greenwich
Tickets £18 Book here

Join us for an exciting evening of storytelling and creativity as we celebrate LGBTQIA+ History Month with Royal Museums Greenwich.

We’ll explore queerness, migration, and chosen family, through story-sharing and interactive drop-in workshops:

Queer/ing Family Trees with Kyoung KimWhat does your queer family look like? Map out your chosen families and reflect on the paths you’ve taken to create them. An interactive workshop facilitated by Dr Kyoung Kim, an artist, researcher, and collective member of ‘Queer’ Asia

This workshop is open to all, as those who make up our chosen families come in all shapes/sizes/identities, and we take this opportunity to recognise, honour, and celebrate the diversity within your communities of acceptance, whatever they may be.

Identity Postcards with Imogen PatelExplore the intersections of queerness, migration, and cultural heritage using collage and drawing. You can create a postcard to send to someone else, or to yourself, as a reflective keepsake connecting identity, memory, and movement. 

Imogen Patel is a London-based artist and workshop facilitator whose work explores identity, heritage, and the lived experiences of second-generation immigrants. Her practice brings together textiles, cultural motifs, and personal narratives to examine how we take up space within diasporic and queer communities. 

Story-sharing & Exhibition ArchiveBrowse stories of queer migration from our exhibition archive and contribute your own experiences through our Story Discs in a relaxed, drop-in story-sharing space.

The full programme of Fierce Queens: Unframed, Unstitched… Unapologetic! also includes a full cabaret show with drag king and queen Adam All and Apple Derrieres, stories from the Queer History Club and a gallery takeover by queer multidisciplinary art collective Bold Mellon Collective.
