We invite all interested teachers to get to know the Gay Museum: after a brief introduction to the museum, we will give an insight into the practical work. Participants can try out units from the school class workshop “Love at First Fight – Queer Movements in Germany since Stonewall” themselves. Alternating between input and small groups, central themes of the exhibition will be developed and discussed.

Love at First Fight looks back on more than 50 years of queer life and activism in West Germany, East Germany and reunified Germany. The exhibition shows photos, interviews, posters, flyers, printed calls for protest, underground fanzines, pamphlets – it looks at everywhere where social change was achieved by lesbians, trans*, gays, inter*, bi and queers.

Afterwards, there will be time for questions and discussion, as well as for an independent visit to the other exhibition.

Speakers:

Panda Ortmann is head of education and outreach at the Gay Museum

Felicia Rolletschke is a freelance workshop trainer, speaker, blogger and trans* activist from Berlin.

Duration: 16-18.30

An event as part of Queer History Month. For interested teachers and educators, participation is free of charge.
