Join Sixto-Juan Zavala, founder of Queer Botany, on a tour of the ‘Rooted Beings‘ exhibition, looking at the collection from a queer botanical perspective. We invite you to bring your own stories and experiences of plants to share. How can botany be queered and how can queerness be botanical?
We’ll meet at the Information Point, which is on level 0, directly in front of you as you enter Wellcome Collection.
Spaces are limited and may run out if we are busy so you may wish to arrive early.
