Queer History Month<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The history of sexual and gender minorities has always existed, but it has often been kept hidden or overlooked. It is present everywhere, in all time layers, social classes and cultures, but finding it requires sensitivity, expertise and looking at history differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friends of Queer History invites memory organizations, schools, art organizations and other organizations to celebrate Queer History Month every year in November<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span> The goal of Queer History Month is to examine Finnish history and culture from the LGBTQIA+ perspectives and record them as part of our common cultural heritage.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We challenge you and the your organization to make the silent history a cultural heritage shared by all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to participate?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Background<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The month highlighting the common cultural heritage of gender and sexual minorities took place in Finland for the first time in 2018, and organizations participating included Aine Art Museum, Ateneum Art Museum, AV-arkki, Goethe Institute, Helsinki City Museum, National Museum, National Theater, Finnish Literature Society, Svenska Litteraturs\u00e4llskapet, Labor Archives, Labor Museum Werstas and the national broadcasting company Yle’s archives. During the month, there was extensive information and writing about the history related to the LGBTQIA+ minorities, and memory organizations highlighted previously hidden material, organized remembrance cafes and queer guided tours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2020, Queer History Month in Finland has been coordinated by the Friends of Queer History association.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
