OurStory Scotland: Is Anyone Recording our Stories?
Tramway25 Albert Drive
Sat 19 Sept
About this event
Founded in 2002 and based in Glasgow's Mitchell Library, OurStory Scotland is a community and oral history project recording the stories of Scotland's LGBT communities from the 1920s to now. Dom Miller-Graham leads this OurStory Scotland presentation tracing more than two decades of collecting, archiving and presenting the lived experiences of Scotland's LGBTQ+ communities. It considers why the question "Is anyone recording our stories?" — upon which the organisation was founded — still matters today. Part of a day of events from OurStory Scotland. These events are part of a public programme curated by Steven Grainger to accompany the UK AIDS Memorial Quilt exhibition at Tramway. Recommended for ages 16+ Audience notes Audiences may find the content deeply moving, emotional, or distressing, as it deals with themes of illness, bereavement, social stigma, and historical marginalisation. ACCESS Tramway is fully wheelchair accessible. See more information about venue access on our Access page
