**Saturday, November 30** at **Cotton Club**, 42-44 Oldham St, Manchester M4 1LE from **5–11pm**:

**TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN** by **Jordan Roberts,** a young gay artist living with HIV, features an exhibition of portraits taken by Jordan, talks, video art, a panel event of people living in Manchester with HIV, a flash-mob performance, local charity stalls and a collection of letters written by people living with HIV.

Guests can then dance the night away with a star-studded performance from **Cheddar Gorgeous** and **Anna Phylactic**, plus a live DJ set from Manchester’s very own **RebeccaNeverBecky**.

STILL BEGINNING will be a screening of seven newly commissioned videos from **Visual AIDS** in **New York** that respond to the ongoing HIV/AIDS epidemic. The films, which cover subjects from anti-stigma work to public sex culture, highlighting pioneering activism and staging intergenerational conversations, films aim to resist narratives of resolution or conclusion, considering the continued urgency of contemporary HIV/AIDS while revisiting resonant cultural histories.

The evening, which will be introduced by **Greg Thorpe** of Superbia, includes time for conversation and reflection afterwards.

**Free entry**, but booking essential. [**Tickets**](https://www.cultureplex.co.uk/events/still-beginning/?ref=scenemag.co.uk)
