A new LGBTQ+ audio trail is coming to the Museum of Liverpool next week.
National Museums Liverpool is partnering with Bottoming, the LGBTQ+ mental health podcast, to bring visitors a new audio exploration of some of the hidden stories behind key objects in their collections.
Available from Tuesday, June 21, the feature will guide visitors through the museum with Matthew Riley and Brendan Geoghegan – hosts of Bottoming podcast – “using their own experiences and conversational tone to add a personal, relevant touch to experiencing the collections.” It is hoped LGBTQ+ visitors to the museum will be able to hear their own experiences represented, while other visitors will have the chance to explore fresh perspectives on Liverpool's rich, diverse culture.
