Dundee Contemporary Arts are thrilled to host this Community Oral History Workshop ahead of their Q&A screening of Rebel Dykes, the award-winning feature documentary.

In these practical and lively Community Oral History Workshops, the film’s producer, Glasgow-based Siobhan Fahey of Riot Productions will share extracts from the archives from OurStory Scotland, who collect, archive and share the LGBT Oral Histories of Scotland plus The Rebel Dykes Archive. The workshop will provide a quick overview of what Oral History is about, and we will all have a go at collecting Oral History. Bring a smartphone if you have one!

The Rebel Dykes tour is supported by Screen Scotland, Bohemia Media and Birds Eye View.

Welcome to the stage, OutFest!

Shaper/Caper and Dundee Pride present a pure massive celebration for LGBTQ+ History Month! This February will be chockablock with creative events, workshops and discussions that explore what it's like to be a queer person in Dundee right now.

We’re collaborating with some absolutely fabulous local partners to brighten up your February, including V&A Dundee, DCA, DJCAD and many many more! From pop-up performances to vogue workshops, employability talks for the creative industries to our Battle of the Icons TikTok challenge, there are plenty of opportunities to get involved.

We’ll also be kick-starting our brand new community disco, Discotheque (just like a roller disco without those pesky skates!) and launching the new-look version of our magazine show The In/Out Crowd featuring some wonderful guests!

Fancy getting involved? Head to shapercaper.com/outfest to check out the full lineup and book your space! We’re here, we’re queer, come join us!
