FOR the fifth year running Redditch and Bromsgrove Councils are working in partnership with Artrix and the libraries in Redditch and Bromsgrove to offer a month’s programme of events, exhibitions and information displays in recognition of LGBT History Month.

Celebrated throughout the month of February, the celebrations were kicked off last night with a free evening of networking, information stalls and a screening of ‘Pride’ at the Artrix Centre in Bromsgrove.

Artrix will also be putting on showings of ‘Carol’ (15) on February 3 and 17 and ‘The Danish Girl (15) on February 16 and 21.

Throughout the month there will also be a Bingo Night (February 10, 7pm), Cinema Night with drinks and meals beforehand (February 18, 6pm) and Quiz Night (February 24, 6.30pm) all at the Bailiff Café, Church Road Redditch (The former County Court Building).




Both Redditch and Bromsgrove Libraries will be holding exhibitions and book displays to raise awareness of LGBT History Month from February 1-29 before the celebrations finish with an art exhibition and event at the Palace Theatre, Redditch on March 4.

In line with the LGBT Redditch Group are also launching their LGB&T Support Services Booklet, containing information on the services and advice available for all LGB&T members and their families.


LGBT History Month is held in February every year in the UK and celebrates and recognises the contribution made to society by Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual and Trans-gender members of the community.
