Organisers of the annual Lesbian Lives Conference, the world’s only annual academic conference in lesbian studies, have issued an invitation to participants to book their places at this year’s conference.

This year’s event will be held in Brighton, and as previous LL Conferences held in the city have sold out, interested parties are encourage to book their places early.

The line-up of confirmed speakers at the 22nd annual Lesbian Lives Conference includes such luminaries as Jane Czyzselska, editor of Diva magazine, CampbellX, the award-winning filmmaker behind BlackmanVision and Professor Angelia R. Wilson, author of the book ‘Why Europe is Lesbian and Gay-Friendly (and Why America never will be)’, among others.

The two-day international interdisciplinary event is hosted by the University of Brighton LGBT and Queer Life Research Hub in conjunction with the Women’s Studies Centre, University College Dublin and will focus on the theme: Lesbian Feminisms Now!

The organisers are keen to emphasise that this a participatory event and everyone who takes is warmly invited to join the debates and discussions, network and meet new people.
