QUEER BAR

The QUEER BAR takes place during the summer months in the garden of M.1. Queer people from the region and all interested people are invited to celebrate together, to network and exchange experiences – regardless of their gender, age, ethnicity and sexual identity.

The QUEER BAR is more than a bar: it is a shelter, platform, networking opportunity, further education and political statement. It asks how queer people can and want to come together in the countryside; and offers space to actively explore these questions. What began in the summer of 2021 as an art project by Paul Niedermayer as part of Agnieszka Roguski’s programme series GOSSIP, continued in 2022 with the participation of various co-hosts and their own themes. In 2023, special guests will fill the evenings with art and activism on two of a total of four evenings. They invite us to think further, exchange ideas, participate and above all to let go: of rules, clichés and prejudices or simply of ideas about how and what gender should be. The QUEER BAR thus explores what hosting can mean, which roles it implies and how social boundaries can be drawn differently.

The bar will be open from 6 pm in the garden of M.1 in Hohenlockstedt. Admission is free and barrier-free.

The QUEER BAR 2023 is funded by the Förderstiftung Kreis Steinburg.
