2025 marks 50 years of queer hope and joy for LGBT Foundation—and we’re hosting city-wide celebrations all year long. Supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund and proudly sponsored by Barefoot Wine, this free mini-exhibition at North City Library tells the story of five decades of queer activism in the North West.

The North City Library is open during the following hours:

  • Monday and Tuesday: 9am to 8pm
  • Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday: 9am to 5pm
  • Friday: Closed 

Following the conclusion of the mini-exhibition at North City Library the show will continue at Manchester Central Library from Tuesday 26th August-Wednesday 31st December 2025, including additional displays of never-before-seen treasures from LGBT Foundation’s archive.
