OUR SCENE

OUR SCENE: An Archive of Bristol’s Queer Nightlife Rebirth is a collaborative project between CONQUEER and Bristol Pride, showcasing significant images, memorable short stories, and reflections from promoters and collectives that re-emerged post-lockdown in Bristol. The publication includes further unforgettable narratives and visual art, along with highlights from photographers of this era capturing the scene which needed to be documented. OUR SCENE will also feature the promoters and collectives who befan curating events pre-locksdon, looking back on what queer nightlife originally was in Bristol.Over 30 promoters and event series'' have their own personal stories to tell and imagery to display. We feel this book is a perfect opportunity to facilitate an archive for those to be recorded and appreciated. This book will act as a time capsule containing photography, event posters, hand-written letters/ notes, stories, and illustrations from the collectives and individuals who encouraged self-expression and creativity, especially when the sun went down and venues opened their doors.
