Museum of Transology to hold Trans Pride archiving day at Brighton’s Trans Pride Centre this weekend

Graham Robson April 25, 2024

The Museum of Transology has been collecting items from Trans Pride Brighton & Hove over the last ten years. This weekend – Saturday, 27 April – they are holding an archiving day at the Trans Pride Centre (93 St James Street, Brighton BN2 1TP) and you’re invited!

Pop along to see the collection and help out with the process of preserving, labelling and cataloging it. You’re welcome to bring your own items to add to the collection too. No prior experience needed, no need to book. More info HERE

The Museum of Transology has been collaborating with Trans Pride UK to build local trans collections for local trans communities right across the UK and Ireland.

They said: “Wherever there’s a Trans Pride festival, there’ll be a transology collection.

“If you’d like to have your voice saved in transcestry, all you need to do is turn up with your object to your local collection point.

“We’ll give you a brown tag to write your story onto and show you how to archive your precious artefact in your own words.

“Objects will be chosen from every Trans Pride collection to be included in the Museum of Transology’s 10 year anniversary exhibition in 2025. You can co-curate your object’s place in the exhibition in our free online UK-wide transology curation workshops.

“Trans rights might be under attack, but we’re fighting back by protecting, saving and celebrating our culture for future genderations.

“Donate your object to ensure we leave a legacy of trans joy for the future.”
