Queer Ecologies at Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park

An artist residency exploring how we live, grow, love, make kin and stand in allyship with the ecologies we are a part of. We’re telling new stories about nature and our connection to it, empowering interspecies collaborations, and honouring the inherently queer patterns and relations found throughout nature. From June—September 2021 we are offering gatherings around a campfire, workshops, performances, and—for the finale—a Microbe Disco where you can dance with the smallest members of the Cemetery Park’s ecosystem! People of all genders and sexual orientations are welcome, with a particular welcome for queer, trans, sick, disabled and Queer, Trans, Intersex, Black folks, and people of colour (QTIBPOC) folks. All events are ticketed - some are free, and some on a sliding scale with free tickets available. To book, please go to: http://tiny.cc/queerecologies

Other Access Info

Workshops will have the option of an outside covered area in

wet weather. Toilets are not always available onsite; you can

find the nearest accessible toilet at www.lockdownloo.com/.

We will also provide a toilet map to all attendees on the day.

All events are reached by compacted crushed concrete or

earth paths, with some events taking place on grass alongside

a path. Walking distances from the road vary from 100-

500m, though if arranged in advance a vehicle could also

drive onto the site. There will be a range of different seating

options available - including rugs, cushions, logs, benches

with backs, or chairs with arm rests. Let us know if you have

any other specific seating requirements which you’d like us

to accommodate.

BSL interpretation is available and will be automatically provided

for performances. We are also able to book interpreters

for workshops and gatherings—please let us know at least

two weeks in advance if you would like to request this.

We can also provide interpreters for other languages for any

event—please let us know two weeks in advance if you

would like this.

We aim to make our events as accessible as possible, and are

learning constantly how to do this better. If you would like to

let us know about any specific requirements or access needs

that you would like us to meet, or offer feedback on our accessibility

arrangements, please email hari@compostmentis.com.
