'From Hollywood to Bishopsgate' - A Journey into Queer Celebrity and the Archive
19:00
Notes: In this talk queer writer, artist and academic Gareth Longstaff will explore how celebrity and queer culture have emerged in popular media and archival spaces. Here he will navigate a rich range of queer concepts and ideas to investigate how the representation of celebrity culture is central to queer lives, desires and experiences.

What We Do

Proudly independent since 1895, Bishopsgate Institute is a cultural venue in the City of London. Our beautiful Victorian building is a place for people to connect over a shared love of learning. We believe everyone’s history should be valued, and our special collections and archives document the experiences of everyday life, as well as the people who have campaigned for social, political and cultural change. Come on in to explore our archives, take a course, or hire our amazing spaces.
