Velorose is where art meets architecture, in a purpose-built shop fit-out combining an architecture and design studio and art gallery. Velorose undertakes architectural and urbanism commissions, design and communications challenges. The gallery exhibits, sells and realises work that addresses physical space, the built environment and traditions of representation https://velorose.com/
LGBT+ History Month is for everyone; whether you work in education, a museum, a library or an art gallery, a business, a service, or are a member of a network/social group or an individual.
It is celebrated every February across the UK and was founded in 2004 by Schools OUT UK co-chairs, Paul Patrick & Professor Emeritus Sue Sanders. It was first celebrated in February 2005.
For so long LGBT+ people’s history was hidden, following the repeal of Section 28, UK LGBT+ History Month was created to:
- claim our past
- celebrate our present
- create our future
