House of Brag is a collective of queers and allies who have felt the
lack of a cohesive non-commercial space for LGBTQI individuals. We are
opening a large building in Kennington on Saturday 13th October. It will be a great opportunity
for people to meet each other, organise and build momentum ahead of the
TUC march on 20th October.
The day will start with a free open breakfast and lead into a series of talks and discussions on relevant subjects: queer homelessness, the cuts, women in squatting, and a discussion on the future of queer spaces. There will also be classes and workshops on other things including yoga, self-defence and creative writing.
In the evening we’ll be putting on some performance poetry, doing an open mic session and finishing with a gig, with a view to ending the event soon after 11pm. You can keep updated on developments more regularly on our Facebook page or our twitter account: @HouseOfBrag.
Full itinerary and stuff at House of Brag - all free, all good.
Yay! (Apart from the "performance poetry" bit).
I'm not too sure about the "women in squatting" bit!
