Queer Journeys by Youcef Hadjazi – Part of Journeys Festival International 2020

5 — 11 October 2020 Entrance is free

Part of Journeys International Festival 2020, Queer Journeys is a series of zine-making workshops led by Youcef Hadjazi and aimed at LGBTQ+ migrants based in the UK, illustrating queer migrant journeys to create a collaborative zine.

The aim of the project is to create a space for queer stories to exist and to be initiated by their narrators, preserving authenticity and rawness while raising awareness on queer immigration. This process also intends to create a queer space for migrants while developing artistic responses and engaging in creative collaborations. The final zine will be distributed to all participants across the country and be available to view at www.JourneysFestival.com.

5 — 11 October 2020 Entrance is free
