Celebrating local LGBTQIA+ artists

Keira Thomas is a local poet, event manager for Worthing Pride 2019 and also the creator and coordinator of this multi-artist show. This exhibition creates a safe and accepting space for local independent LGBTQIA+ artists to creatively share their voice and personal experiences, free from restrictions and discrimination.

Creating progressive and symbolic history in Worthing, artists will play a significant role at the first LGBTQIA+ exhibition at Worthing Museum. 

An exciting contributor to the exhibition, Gil Mualem-Doron, an award-winning transdisciplinary artist, researcher, and curator, produces art based on his lived experiences of intersectionality as a migrant, person of colour, and neurodivergent queer.
