Events
Everyone is welcome at Stills, and with a wide range of events year round, there is something for everyone – no matter the subject or skill level. Events include exhibition previews, artist talks, symposiums, reading groups, lectures, film screenings, seminars and workshops. Our partners and collaborators also regularly offer us the opportunity to host complementary activities such as book launches and music events.
2pm - 4pm
Becoming Archived: Lesbian Snapshot Collective
The Lesbian Snapshot Collective (LSC) knows that everyday snapshots – personal images that might otherwise remain unseen – belong in the museum alongside fine-art photography.
Archives have often excluded lesbian lives or represented them on someone else’s terms. Becoming Archived asks how our photographs and stories might enter the record on our own terms. Each participant decides what to share and whether anything is retained beyond the workshop.In this friendly, creative two-hour workshop, we will explore what our photographs show, what lies beyond the frame and what we remember beyond the image. Share as much or as little as feels right and listen to the similarities and differences in one another’s stories.
1pm - 2.30pm
