Queer life is everywhere! With the Queere Kiezgeschichten-project, we want to tell these stories, make them visible and pass them on – from Spandau to Köpenick!

In the first phase of the project, we will take a close look at Marzahn-Hellersdorf and ask: who are the queer legends of this district? Where has queer life existed here for generations? And with whom are we fighting for queer liberation here?

The Schwules Museum – aka the oldest queer museum in the world – will dive into the queer history of the district, together with you and three different youth centers: we will meet contemporary witnesses and activists and leave our footprint in the queer history of the city; through a photography project, handmade zines or other art projects!

The project days “Queere Kiezgeschichten” will take place from August 11-15 from 10 am to 3 pm. We will start the first day in the Schwules Museum archive, while the other four days will take place in the rooms of our cooperation partners KIDS & CO. Participation is free of charge and snacks are of course provided.

Are you between 14 and 22 years old, from Marzahn-Hellersdorf and would like to take part? Then simply register at this email address: fuehrungen@schwulesmuseum.de
