Young LGBTQ+ Londoners to host evening of remembrance and reflection on World AIDS Day
Members of Mosaic LGBT+ Young Persons’ Trust, which supports, educates and and inspires London's LGBTQ+ young persons, are taking the lead in World AIDS Day events in the capital by hosting an evening of remembrance and reflection in partnership with AIDS Memory UK.
The event, taking place on Monday, 1 December from 6.30 - 8pm, will be hosted at the historic Fitzrovia Chapel - a site deeply intertwined with the history of those who lost their lives to HIV/AIDS-related illnesses, as it once served as a place of solace for patients at the former Middlesex Hospital.
The evening will feature poetry readings, music performances and personal reflections delivered by members of the Trust. Guests will then join a symbolic walk to the nearby site selected for The AIDS Memorial in London, which will be realised in the coming years in a new public artwork by acclaimed artist Anya Gallaccio.
Everyone is welcome to attend, but advance booking is required to manage capacity.
