Join us for a series of events exploring kinship, community and archives

This autumn at Tate Modern, we will celebrate the work of Black queer artists and cultural producers in London and South Africa. Join us for music, performances, mentoring days, talks, roundtables and a special evening celebration.

This event series is inspired by the work of Topher Campbell and Zanele Muholi. More events to be added soon.

All Tate Modern entrances are step-free. You can enter via the Turbine Hall and into the Natalie Bell Building on Holland Street, or into the Blavatnik Building on Sumner street.

There are lifts to every floor of the Blavatnik and Nathalie Bell buildings. Alternatively you can take the stairs.

  • Fully accessible toilets are located on every floor on the concourses
  • A quiet room is available to use in the Natalie Bell Building on Level 4
  • Ear defenders can be borrowed from the Ticket desks
