The Museum of London was delighted to partner with UCL Urban Laboratory during our City Now City Future season (2017/8). This partnership encompassed a range of activities that brought a diversity of voices, critical research, and activist attitudes into our public programmes around LGBTQ+ Night time spaces – from queer night salons and oral history roundtables to the opportunity to support Urban Pamphleteer #7. Thank you for working with us!
