We had a wonderful time yesterday at Exploring Queerness in Natural History. We're writing up it up to share in a future blog post, but for now here are some pictures of our fantastic curators @aquadan1.bsky.social and Connor Butler, the lunchtime zine-making, and our afternoon panellists.

The programme is out for our Symposium, Exploring Queerness in Natural History, on 5 February. We're excited to hear from our Symposium Curators, Connor Butler and @aquadan1.bsky.social, as well as talks from Simon Goldhill, @canopyrobin.com and @rossbrooks.co.uk. (1/3) buff.ly/jc6Unz7
