This LGBTQ+ History conference explores ideas of Outsider History. The margins can be a powerful place rather than a place of exclusion. But what happens when people get excluded from mainstream memory through lack of resources or time? What happens when Outsider History strives to become part of the centre? How does the history get defined? Are aspects of history obscured in an effort to make things palatable and acceptable?

The Creative Bridges Conference is an annual event that brings together arts, museum and education professionals to share best practice and provoke new ways of thinking about young people with additional needs/abilities.

The conference is an opportunity to rethink approaches to equality, diversity and accessibility. It takes place in Coventry, and is co-delivered by people with additional needs and abilities. It offers the chance to hear from experienced professionals and share practice. Discussions will inform a series of workshops (Spring 2019) to support this work.
