Queer(y)ing Museums: Maritime Museum of BC
Welcome to Queer(y)ing Museums: a BCMA Gender & Sexuality podcast series! In this podcast, we seek to deepen the discussions begun in the Gender & Sexuality Inclusion Toolkit, and highlight great work being done around the province and beyond. In this first episode, BCMA’s Desirée Hall and Tanya Pacholok sit down (virtually) with MMBC board member Jelena Putnik and Executive Director Brittany Vis to discuss the Maritime Museum of BC’s upcoming exhibit, “Queer at Sea: Tales from the 2SLGBTQ+ Community”. Jelena and Brittany share the inspiration for the exhibit, what they’ve learned about relationship building and community-centred exhibits, addressing homophobia, and more.  “Queer at Sea: Tales from the 2SLGBTQ+ Community” will be open to the public 17 May 2022 and run for the duration of the summer. You can find more information about how and where to find the exhibit here!
