Saturday 1 February 2025 Colouring Greek Love

AQuA Reading Room, Victorian Pride Centre
Mezzanine, 79-81 Fitzroy Street, St Kilda

A colouring workshop and panel discussion about queer antiquity.

Was Sappho really the original lesbian? Were Achilles and Patroclus just friends? Who were the sacred Galli, and how do these priest/esses relate to trans* experiences today? This workshop revisits some of the Hellenic Museum’s recent queer programming in the intimate space of AQuA’s reading room. Listen to researchers discuss surprising queer facts, myths and inspirations from ancient Greece and their resonance with AQuA’s collection of Australian queer history while you colour gorgeous images from the Hellenic Museum’s participatory exhibition, Greek Love: Outside the Lines, by queer Canberran artist Mayticks.
