What does a ‘queer family’ look like in South Tyneside?

The ‘We Are Family’ project is an opportunity for members of the LGBTQI+ community in South Tyneside to share your stories and histories as part of a photography and creative arts project and exhibition. We are looking at what it means to be a family beyond blood and DNA. This could be queer families, adoptive families, chosen families, step families and other ways that people in South Tyneside have chosen to build and define their relations.

The project will start with photos and material from photographer Phyllis Christopher’s archive to stimulate story-telling, writing, drawing and photography of your South Tyneside histories.
