This PRIDE season we’re making sure to do what we love and do best - providing platforms for new artistic voices and nurturing learning and growth through creation.

From exhibitions to fine art, our summer programme is an all-ages, all-backgrounds affair that seeks to engage audiences and participants alike with Queer narratives especially - stories that seek to connect, empower and transform.

We hope you enjoy every single one.

L E Smith | Interrelation

28th Jun - 19th Sep 2025 | 10 am - 10 pm daily

West Norwood Library & Picturehouse, 1 - 7 Norwood High Street, London SE27 9JU, UK

PUBLIC LAUNCH - 4th Jul 2025, 6 - 9 pm

Interrelation is an exploration of the fluid, often complex connections that define us - our relationships with our bodies, our parents, our partners and the shifting landscapes of identity, capturing the vulnerabilities and strengths embedded in human form and presence. Smith invites viewers into a deeply personal yet universal dialogue on gender fluidity, intimacy and self-awareness.

Michael Williamson | The Roads We Travel Together

29th Jun - 20th Sep 2025 | 10 am - 10 pm daily

West Norwood Library & Picturehouse, 1 - 7 Norwood High Street, London SE27 9JU, UK

PUBLIC LAUNCH - 4th Jul 2025, 6 - 9 pm

In 2023, Williamson went on a journey of self-discovery around their gender identity, coming out as non-binary - “I always knew I was gay but never felt my view of a gay man fit with the norm. I realised I was neither a he or a she.” Their work over the past two years has shined a light on this second coming out and the finding of a happier place in life and in their Queerness. The Roads We Travel Together continues in the same vein, utilising traditionally ‘masculine’ mixed-media and oil paints with more ‘feminine’-identified practices of Palo Santo, needlework and watercolours to interrogate the wounds of homophobia and the transformative powers of friendship, love, healing and the discoveries made along the way during life’s journey.
