Jewish & Proud: A Celebration of LGBT+ Identity, History and Belonging in the North

Join us for an insightful talk and panel discussion with KeshetUK.

Come along to this inspiring evening of conversation, learning, and reflection as we celebrate LGBT+ History Month in partnership with KeshetUK. Together, we’ll explore what it means to be LGBT+ and Jewish today, uncover the stories that have shaped our communities, and engage in thought-provoking discussion about identity, history, and belonging.

This event is open to everyone whether you’re part of the Jewish community, the LGBT+ community, or simply curious to learn more. Come with an open mind and leave with new insights and connections. We look forward to welcoming you warmly to this special evening of shared history and dialogue.

KeshetUK is the UK’s only Jewish LGBT+ education and training charity working with over 6,000 people every year in Jewish schools, synagogues and community organisations. Founded in 2014, KeshetUK is proud to work across the entirety of the Jewish community from Orthodox spaces to Masorti and Progressive Judaism ensuring that nobody is forced to choose between their Jewish and LGBT+ identities.
