18th Annual LGBTQ+ Conference: UNORTHODOX

18th Annual LGBTQ Conference

Celebrating its 18th birthday, the LGBTQ+ History Conference is ‘coming of age’, yet it is still grappling with important themes in history and heritage. This year it explores faith, religion, belief, spirituality and their intersect with sexuality, transition(ing), identity and dissent.
