Islington LGBT History Month 2008

Another year, another LGBT History Month. The Pink Singers small group has semi-religiously been a supporter of the celebrations, and this year Charlie has booked us into the commemorative events over in Islington Council. This year's theme is 'Claiming our Past, Celebrating our Present and Creating our Future', and the council's laudable aims are to create an environment where 'LGBT people are seen as positive role models for young people and can live free from hostility and prejudice'. This is broadly in line with the aims of the Pink Singers, even if we haven't really asked to be role models and our celebrating all things LGBT is a somewhat inadvertant side effect of our singing.

Anyway, we'll be performing a few songs from our winter concert including Come What May, Hymne A L'Amour and Abba Pink. So come on down and see us strut our stuff this Friday night at Islington Town Hall. Details are over on the Pink Singers website.
