About event

The 4th of May we remember in the Netherlands the victims of World War 2. Since 1987 the LGBT+ community gathers on the Homomonument

Queer storyteller, tourguide and historian Henk B. de Vries noticed that many in the community do not know why we have a Homomonument and who we have to thank for that.

The LGBT community is the one community who do not grow up in their own community, their shared history is often not felt or unknown.

Henk B.'s mission is through storytelling to empower the community with their forgotten queer heroes.

That is why he will storytell on the 2nd and 3rd May at 19:00 pm on the Homomonument. Book your ticket, because of the license only 15 tickets are available.

Queer storyteller, tourguide en historicus Henk B. de Vries merkte op dat veel mensen in de gemeenschap niet weten waarom we een Homomonument hebben en aan wie we dat te danken hebben.

De LHBT-gemeenschap is de enige gemeenschap die niet opgroeit in hun eigen gemeenschap, hun gedeelde geschiedenis is vaak niet voelbaar of onbekend.

De missie van Henk B. is om via storytelling de gemeenschap te versterken met hun vergeten queer helden.
