Galliano also hopes to grow his organization’s own archives, which are currently housed at London’s Bishopsgate Institute, a cultural, educational and research center, and are available to scholars upon request. As Conor Clark reports for Gay Times, the museum will feature four galleries, a workshop, a gift shop, offices for staff and an education space.ĭirector and co-founder Joseph Galliano, a former editor of Gay Times, tells Robert Dex of the Evening Standard that the exhibitions will feature loans from other museums. The institution will occupy the ground floor of a London arts building for two years, after which organizers hope to find their new museum a permanent home. Nonprofit group Queer Britain plans to open the museum this spring, the group notes in a statement. It will be the first of its kind in the country. A new museum dedicated to the lives of LGBTQ people is coming to the United Kingdom, organizers announced Monday.
