Take a walk with ecologist Connor Butler to learn what the emerging theory of queer ecology is all about. Join historian Sheldon K. Goodman and our Collections & House Manager Mark Syson-Harvey to revisit some of the LGBTQ+ histories represented in the treasures you’ll find in the house. The Surrey Rainbow Choir will be back for their fourth year in a row, with more acts yet to be announced.
With talks and performances happening at different times in different parts of the house and garden throughout the evening, you'll be free to explore and join in with the bits that most interest you.
