SUMMARY:The Sparkle Weekend
DESCRIPTION:The Sparkle Weekend is the world’s largest free-to-attend celebration of gender diversity\, and a safe space for anyone who identifies as gender non-conforming\, their families\, friends\, and allies. In 2019\, we welcomed more than 22\,000 visitors over the weekend. \nThe Sparkle Weekend is a festival-style family event\, featuring live music and entertainment\, talks and workshops\, and an opportunity for our corporate sponsors\, grassroots charities\, and trans-run businesses to engage with our visitors. \nWe also work with local and national charities who support young trans and gender questioning people and their families so that all age groups feel included. \nOne of the charity’s core values is that the event remains free-to-attend in order to be accessible to everyone\, regardless of gender identity\, race\, religion\, or physical ability. \nThe Sparkle Weekend currently costs tens-of-thousands of pounds to deliver and is currently funded by companies who share the charity’s values of equality and inclusion for all gender non-conforming individuals\, and visitor donations. Sponsorship and donations mean that the Charity can also include smaller grassroots groups who support sub-sectional minorities in the event.

SUMMARY:Queer Spoken Word Poetry Open Mic Night
DESCRIPTION:Join Sappho Events for an inspiring evening of queer spoken word poetry at Glass House\, London’s newest LGBTQIA+ venue in Shoreditch. \nOn the night we will have a few established queer poets perform their work\, alongside an open-mic line-up of new and emerging artists. \nThis event is meant to give queer poets a chance to get back on stage and perform their work live for an audience. After so long staying at home during the pandemic\, we hope to encourage people to try out new work\, and maybe even try live performance for the first time. \nWe also encourage acoustic singer-songwriters to perform their work on the evening. \nPerformers will each have a 5-10 minute set\, with timed slots handed out on the evening from 6:30pm. Please arrive before 7pm to reserve your spot\, but we also welcome those who spontaneously decide on the night to perform in the second half of the evening.

SUMMARY:Ania Magliano and Heidi Regan Edinburgh previews
DESCRIPTION:Ania Magliano and Heidi Regan present a double bill of Edinburgh previews at the Village Soho\, just before they head north to Scotland. \nAnia Magliano: Absolutely No Worries If Not (Work in Progress) \n50% Polish\, 50% Italian\, 100% legend. Ania Magliano’s debut show tackles the stuff that matters: LUSH\, horse girls\, and buying a cat off Gumtree. \nLeicester Comedy Festival Best New Show Winner 2022. Writer for Amelia Dimoldenberg’s Chicken Shop Date. As seen on The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2) & Dave Online. \n“Already has the cool\, calm and collected stage presence of a standup veteran” Guardian \n“A finesse usually seen after decades in the game” Diva Mag \nCome if you want to\, but absolutely no worries if not. \nHeidi Regan: Work in Progress \nHaving had very limited experience in committed relationships\, Heidi moved in with her girlfriend and began looking into parenthood minutes before a global pandemic kicked off. As things get serious\, an increasingly hopeless Heidi tries to support her NHS girlfriend via her usual tactics of telling very bad jokes and making niche pop culture references that never land. It has mixed results. \nHeidi has two of the most prestigious comedy awards under her belt; the So You Think You’re Funny? title at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2016 and has supported the likes of Joe Lycett\, Phil Wang\, Milton Jones\, Tom Houghton\, Tez Ilyas and The Guilty Feminist on tour. \n‘Multitude of laugh-out moments’ ★★★★★ Scottish Daily Mail \n‘A show that is smart\, positive and personal while being consistently funny’ ★★★★ Shortcom

SUMMARY:Queer Pottery class with Clay Wild
DESCRIPTION:Join Megan Elliott (she/her)\, founder of Clay Wild\, for a relaxing queer pottery workshop at The Queery! The class will be focusing on traditional hand-building techniques using minimal tools and is suitable for all levels. \nParticipants will learn how to make a pinch pot and a coil pot out of air-drying clay and will be guided through how to personalise their new creations. \nAt the end of the class\, participants should have two small finished pots to take away with them and tips on how to decorate these at home when dry. These pots are perfect as little storage vessels or ornaments and can also be used for succulents/small plants. \nNo experience necessary – suitable for all levels! This is a class prioritising queer joy and creativity in a safe\, sober space. \nYour clay will still be delicate upon completion\, so please bring a little box or container to carry your creations home. A tub or a small box (approx shoe box size) is ideal\, but there will also be newspaper for you to wrap them in if needed. \nTickets available at https://www.outsavvy.com/event/9774/queer-pottery-class-with-clay-wild
