A People’s Museum of LGBTQ2+ History is a socially engaged artwork by the art and design collective AK/OK (Kate Jarboe + M. Wright), that creates a queer archive, telling the stories of everyday people.
As a grassroots archive created by hundreds of people, the project is a witness to the ways that lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, two-spirit, and queer people are present in all of our lives. The project asks you to remember: Who was the first LGBTQ2+ person you know in your life?
This act of collective memory contains hundreds of drawings and stories - of aunts, uncles, cousins, parents, children, friends, lovers, classmates, teachers, public figures, strangers, and selves. All participants will be credited as artists in the project. — All are welcome!
