Peace Out is a project exploring Peace and LGBTQ+ activism by The Peace Museum.
The exhibition first launched in 2019 on the occasion of 50 years since the Stonewall Riots in the museum’s main galleries. It has now been updated and made digital for 2021.
The exhibition aims to explore the journey from Stonewall, a moment in history that exemplifies violence perpetrated against LGBTQ+ people and their violent retaliation, and marks the beginning of the following struggle for equality and justice. It will share the stories of those who have peacefully campaigned for LGBTQ+ rights and equality and explore the impact LGBTQ+ people have had on peacemaking.
