SUMMARY:Finding Tom
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to a journey from darkness to light\, to be the main character in a story about homosexual men in Helsinki. Come and find one of “Tom’s men” from yourself: unashamed\, proud\, sexy and masculine\, and experience a slice of Finnish homosexual history through a touching story. \nFinding Tom is an immersive\, participatory artwork that combines live action role playing\, theatre and other art forms. It tells the story of homosexual men who lived in Helsinki from the 40’s to the 70’s and of the influence Tom of Finland’s art had on them. \nThe experience lasts five hours (5h) and includes workshops\, the play time and a debrief. You must be present for the whole duration. Pack your own lunch. \nAlthough all the characters in the story are homosexual men\, we welcome all bodies\, genders and sexualities to this journey. This event is body positive and free from discrimination. \nMore information: https://findingtom.wordpress.com/\nVenue: https://www.museumofimpossibleforms.org/ \nACCESSIBILITY \nThe event is not accessible by a wheelchair.

SUMMARY:Queer History Wikipedia Workshop 2022
DESCRIPTION:Queer History Month in Finland is celebrated every year in November. Come and learn more about Finnish queer history and add missing queer history on Wikipedia! \nEvent description\nWhat and why?\nQueer history is everyone’s common history\, but there is a lot of silence around it. It is not always easy to find reliable\, open information about Finnish queer history\, which is a common problem with other marginalized historiography as well. Also Wikipedia has huge gaps related to queer history\, such as important missing pages and sections of pages\, or individual mentions. These shortcomings push queer history further into silence and distort the understanding of common history. \nJoin us in complementing Wikipedia with the contents of queer history and making queer history available to everyone! \nWhere and when?\nThe Queer History Wikipedia Workshop will be organized onThursday 24 November 2022 from 4 to 7 pm. \nIt is a hybrid event\, meaning it is organized simultaneously in HAM Tennis Palace\, Helsinki (Eteläinen Rautatiekatu 8\, 00100 Helsinki)\, as well as online on Zoom. You can indicate your preferred way of participating in the registration form. \nFor whom?\nAnyone interested in the topic can participate in the workshop! You don’t have to be an expert on queer history or Wikipedia editing\, you can just come as you are. Whether you are a young queer person or an experienced researcher of queer history\, a queer activist or an ally\, in the Wikipedia workshop you can get to the bottom of things together\, and support is available. \nThe workshop is a particularly good opportunity to get to know Finnish queer history at a low level and\, of course\, learn how to edit Wikipedia in a nice group. You can sign up with your friend. \nHow?\n\nSign up for the event\, so that we can prepare snacks for everyone participating and prepare for the number of participants on site and remotely. The event is free of charge.\nPlease create a Wikipedia account in advance. If possible\, bring your own laptop with you if you are attending on-site.\nThe event starts with a small presentation that sets the mood for queer history and will help you to get started.\nThroughout the event\, queerhistory researchers will be on call and help with content issues and with finding and tagging sources. There are also Wikipedia experts who advise on Wikipedia’s technical questions.\nFriends of Queer History brings source literature to the event and lists open sources on the web. This makes it easy to mark sources in the texts you write. Sources help in evaluating texts and make them more valid.\nVegan snacks and drinks are available during the workshop – and of course good company!\n\nProgram\n16.00–16.30 Introduction to queer history (Tuula Juvonen and Sandra Hagman\, only in Finnish) \n16.30–16.45 Small introduction to Wikipedia practices (Kimberli Mäkäräinen\, Susanna Ånäs) \n16.45–18.45 Workshopping\, writing\, free discussion and refreshments – experts will be present throughout the event \n18.45–19.00 Summary\, feedback and conclusion \nRegistration\nThe registration is open until 23 November 2022 . The event is free of charge. \n\n\n \n\n(If the form above doesn’t work\, you can register via the same form on Google Forms.) \nAccessibility\nPresentations and speeches at the event are in Finnish. There is no sign language interpretation or written interpretation at the event. \nThe association’s Safer Space Guidelines are in use at the event. Please read them beforehand. \nOn-site participation:\nHAM’s ticket counter and entrance are located on the second floor of Tennis Palace (address Eteläinen Rautatiekatu 8\, Helsinki)\, which is accessible using lifts located in the vicinity of all the exits.

The event space (“HAM-sali”) is located on the same floor as the ticket counter. \nHealth safety: Please don’t attend the event on-site if you feel like you have the flu or have flu symptoms. Take care of good hand hygiene. We recommend using a face mask\, and masks as well as hand sanitizer will be available at the event. We are monitoring the corona situation and will inform those who have registered about any changes\, and on this page as well. \nRead more about arrival to HAM (opens in new window). \nRead more about HAM’s accessibility here (opens in a new window). \nOnline participation:\nRemote participation is organized via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Queer Writing Evening
DESCRIPTION:When? Thursday 17.11. from 5 to 7 p.m \nWhere? Kvääristö\, Kolmas linja 17  Helsinki \nWhat? Gentle history writing as part of “Rainbow history month”. Invisibility of ordinary everyday life and the digital nature of modern times are and will be problems of historical research. Let’s make the job for the future historians a bit easier. \nAt the beginning of the evening\, Iiris and Minna from the The Labour Archives will talk about the project of saving queer histories and archiving. After that\, Selma guides a couple of creative writing exercises\, after which there will be free writing time. \nWhat is good enough for archives? Basically anything! You can write a short memoir about your life or your thoughts about queer everyday life in the 2020s. \nIf you want\, you can bring queer history materials with you\, such as photos\, notebooks\, letters\, event brochures\, etc. The material will be handed over The Labour Archives\, which will take care of them. During the evening\, you are also welcome to part without the pressure of archiving. \nAccessibility info will be published on this page later on! \nAny questions?

SUMMARY:Nina Wakeford | We are here because we are queer\, we are queer because we are here.
DESCRIPTION:Nina Wakeford | We are here because we are queer\, we are queer because we are here.  \nPerformance\, screening and conversation. \nTuesday\, March 29\, 2022  \nFrom 18:00 -21:00 \nAt Museum of Impossible Forms \n  \nMuseum of Impossible Forms warmly welcomes you to an evening with artist Nina Wakeford. Nina is an artist based in London and is Visiting Professor at Kuvataideakatemia / Academy of Fine Arts in March 2022. Her work begins with the unfinished business of past social movements and the challenges of revisiting the energies that these movements created.  \nFor this evening we will start with a presentation of Nina’s work ‘an apprenticeship in queer I believe it was’ (moving image + live narration\, 10 mins\, 2019). Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp was active from 1981 to 2000 and was established by women to protest American cruise missiles being sited near Reading at RAF Greenham Common. The work explores the capacity of the peace camp to transform the identity of those who lived there. It includes thousands of images of forget-me-nots from the nearby memorial Peace Garden\, photographed one by one on 16mm film. The performance combines this footage with words from first-person accounts of women who were interviewed in a study of the peace camp\, alongside archival documents\, and a song. \nNina will then introduce an episode of a community-made satirical soap opera which was first broadcast on public access television in the United States in 1988-9. ‘Two in Twenty: a Lesbian Soap Opera’ is a low budget production created by a group of women in Boston and shows some of the cultural and political concerns of that time in the United States: including custody of children\, diversity and falling in love with your therapist.  \nWe warmly welcome those active in all forms of queer life\, politics and art to share this evening with us! \n  \nAbout the artist: \nNina Wakeford is an artist based in London and is Visiting Professor at Kuvataideakatemia / Academy of Fine Arts in March 2022. Her work begins with the unfinished business of past social movements and the challenges of revisiting the energies that these movements created. Drawing on a personal collection of feminist materials from the 1970s and 1980s\, Wakeford has made a series of film and performance works that involve singing as a way of attaching herself to objects or images. \nRecent work has been performed and shown at Glasgow International\, Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA)\, and the Barbican. Her two year commission for Art on the Underground included the artist book Our Pink Depot: The Gay Underground FLO-N202-236000000-TRK-MST-00002-SAY-HELLO-WAVE-GOODBYE-KEN-NIE-BPS (Book Works\, 2019). She teaches in the Department of Art\, Goldsmiths\, University of London.  \n  \n***\nMuseum of Impossible Forms is a cultural centre located in Kontula\, East Helsinki\, and the coming together of communities of art and cultural workers who believe in the need for building anticolonial\, antipatriarchal\, and non-fascist commitments and futures.\n\nMuseum of Impossible Forms is accessible by lift with thresholds up to 4cm on the way. The toilet has no thresholds but is not spacious enough to meet accessibility standards. The nearest accessible toilet is located at Kontula metro station.\n\nFor directions\, please refer to this map: https://museumofimpossibleforms.org/gettingthere
