We’re thrilled to present a set of short films about love hosted by West Yorkshire Queer Stories.

Thursday 14th February from 7pm
at Brick Box Rooms, Bradford

FREE entry, no tickets needed, just turn up!

 

Following the films there will be a Valentine's themed show-and-tell

So if you have any LGBTIQ+ memorabilia then bring it down – we’re looking for old Valentine cards, love letters, cherished photos, soppy diary entries, whatever delights you’d like to share!
