A event held at KIT FORM on Thursday 9th November. The event starts at 19:00.


NOVEMBER 9TH

PAPPED will showcase the stunning archive of photography of the queer community in Bristol in the style of Nan Goldin’s earlier photography. Bristol-based queer photographers, gems of the community, will present their work in slideshows allowing us to engage with their work playfully, creating an environment to reflect on our impact as a community.

Expect to gawk at iconic outfits, receive embodied memories of throbbing electrobeats, and see all the obscene moments relegated to the oral history of scandal.

All proceeds for this event will be split between Medical Aid for Palestine (MAP) and T4T. MAP helps provide the much needed medications, medical supplies and disposables to Palestinian hospitals and emergency services in both Gaza and Jerusalem. T4T platforms trans+ creatives to raise money for trans+ healthcare crowdfunding petitions, allowing trans+ people to live as their true selves.
