Queer Microscopy A session for LGBTQIAA+ folks in Barking and Dagenham to connect with some of the incredible microscopic beings who inhabit your local soils, compost piles, food, plants, pets, and bodies. ~57% of the cells and DNA in our bodies are made up of other organisms, for whom binary gender, nuclear family and heteronormativity are not the be all and end all. What can we learn from these companion creatures about the queerness of "nature", and, as we are part of nature... about our own queerness?
Come and chat, nerd out, write, draw, breathe and connect around the microscope on 22nd September 5-7pm
Please feel free to bring soil samples to look at under the microscope, and see just how queer your green spaces are
This is a free event but you will need to book in advance as spaces are limited, please Contact Shaun@companydrinks.info to book your place
