Neal Shasore and Michael Hall discuss the vital role of queer people in shaping cultural heritage, exploring how private homes offered LGBTQ+ people space for self-expression and how mainstream culture later appropriated these expressions. Shasore contributed to the Earthly Paradise Reader; Hall wrote A Queer Inheritance: Alternative Histories in the National Trust. Includes a private view of the Earthly Paradise exhibition afterwards.
