A celebration of Queer existence, identity, and community.
The show was held from 22nd to 26th July at The Assembly House, Theatre St, Norwich NR2 1RQ
This exhibition emphasised the importance of living authentically in the present while acknowledging our past. Highlighting the significance of being unapologetically seen and heard.
The theme of “Presence” invited artists to explore ideas of self-discovery, community, activism, history, and future possibilities. We encouraged interpretations of Presence in personal, political, or abstract ways—whether through bold statements, quiet reflections, or explorations of identity, belonging, and resistance.
We celebrated the power, resilience, and visibility of LGBTQIA+ people. We took up space and assert your identity in a world that often seeks to erase our voices.
