This event is part of the Queer Care Caravan, an artist residency hosted by The Burr of Berwick exploring resilient LGBTQIA+ community-led care across a Film Library exhibition, workshops and screenings.
Inspired by the use of caravans as a therapeutic retreat, 3 artists from Scotland, the Netherlands and Canada spend time in Berwick-upon-Tweed sharing radical approaches to care taken by the resilient LGBTQIA+ community.
The project explores how care and knowledge are shared – past and present – to support LGBTQIA+ people’s rights and wellbeing. The Film Library features a curated selection of video works and ephemera exploring queer care, including materials from Edinburgh Action for Trans Health and AIDS activism. Free monthly events offer the opportunity to make friends and share films, walks, conversations and meals.
