Out at Sea

We've all heard about gay sailors, but what about queer pirates or trans seahorses? Taking place across the National Maritime Museum, the Cutty Sark and Queen’s House, Out at Sea is Greenwich’s annual celebration of LGBTQ+ History Month, a free week-long events series packed with historical storytelling sessions, lively performances and crafty workshops for the whole family. Head down to the three museums to enjoy Drag Queen storytime sessions with the Queer History Club’s H.R.H Aphrodite and pirate drag queen Maneeta and performances from LGBTQ+ asylum seeker choir Rainbows Across Borders. Or get stuck in yourself at a singing workshop facilitated by the Trans Voices Young Company, drag aerobics classes with Dolly Trolley, and a plethora of arts and crafts sessions where you can try your hand at making everything from merfolk collages to fisherman’s knot friendship bracelets.
