We aim to deliver a queer history talk at least once a week at the National Maritime Museum.
Talks are written and delivered by our Visitor and Sales Assistants and by members of our Queer History Club.
Each talk lasts around 20 minutes. Please note that talks are subject to change and, as a last resort, cancellation due to staff availability.
Look out for queer history talks at 3.30pm on the following days at the National Maritime Museum:
| When | Talk title |
| Sunday 6 September | Jean Baret; The first woman to circumnavigate the world |
| Thursday 10 September | How ‘Long Standing Pole Woman’ became ‘Gone to the Spirts’ |
| Thursday 17 September | Attitudes: A Nelson, Hamilton affair |
| Sunday 20 September | The incredible astronaut Sally Ride and other queers in space |
| Thursday 24 September | 'Striped trousers might have been worn by a female sailor' |
