Postponed: This Queer Arab Family Pre-Launch at Bàrd Books

Note: Due to ongoing transport disruption in London, this event has been postponed until further notice.

Join us at Bàrd Books on Tuesday, September 9, 2025, from 7:30pm for a special evening of stories, connection and community as we launch the much-anticipated anthology, This Queer Arab Family. Bàrd Books will be hosting a Queer Open Mic Night featuring readings from queer writers across the city. Expect moving prose, powerful poetry and joyful storytelling.

This Queer Arab Family honours the magic of queer kinship and the life-affirming communities we build when traditional family ties fall short. It’s a celebration of love, resilience and the families we create for ourselves.

Early copies of This Queer Arab Family will be available for purchase on the night, and we’ll hear from editor Elias Jahshan, who will share insights into curating this powerful collection.
