About Beyond Binaries, LGBT+ History Month at The Georgian House

To celebrate LGBT+ History Month at the Georgian House this February join us for an immersive experience of 18th century Edinburgh beyond the binaries of sex and gender.

Through the links in our collection, learn about people connected to queer history who lived, worked and visited Edinburgh over two hundred years ago.

This is a free flow event where visitors move from room to room viewing objects and listening to stories about people, places and themes connected to LGBT+ History in Scotland during the Georgian period (1714-1837).

Please arrive between 6pm and 8pm – event concludes at 9pm.
