VISIBLE

This recently made documentary film, VISIBLE, challenges common misconceptions that LGBTQ+ People of Colour have no history and no story to tell. Calling upon inspirational ancestors and contemporary artists and activists working to challenge mainstream perception and the sanitisation of LGBT legacies, join us for an unforgettable evening of film and discussion.

In conversation will be Director Campbell X, Producer and ACE Change Maker Kayza Rose and VISIBLE contributor, Sabah Choudrey.
