Exhibition:Wales is...Proud

St Fagans National Museum of History
Finished

Every summer, Pride marches and events are held across Wales to celebrate LGBTQ+ equality and visibility. Pride started as a protest, a statement of resistance, and activists in Wales have protested for LGBTQ+ rights for over fifty years.   

The display includes objects from Pride events held across Wales, protest banners and LGBTQ+ campaign badges from Amgueddfa Cymru’s collection.  

Do you have an object, document or photograph that tells a story about LGBTQ+ life and culture in Wales? We would like to hear from you. Please email us at stfagans@museumwales.ac.uk 

Help ensure that the museum’s national collection is representative of LGBTQ+ people and communities from across Wales.
