Provided the funding application is successful, OutStories Bristol will commence a collaborative project with the University of Bristol and Bristol City Council in October. We are calling this project ‘Place‘ and it will create a permanent digital archive of the LGBT history of the Bristol area.
OutStories is already starting preparatory work – research in local archives, oral history interviewing, digitising material for upload to websites, etc.
We hold planning meetings on the second Tuesday each month to oversee the project, develop ideas and co-ordinate volunteer activities. Come along, meet a nice bunch of people, and get involved! We meet around a table in the pub and enjoy a drink too.
Next meeting:
Tuesday 14 April 2015, 7pm to 9pm
Old Market Tavern, 29-30 Old Market Street, Old Market, Bristol BS2 0HB
