Sappho Events has teamed up with Stonewall Lesbian Role Model Laïla El-Metoui to bring you an educational and interactive queer quiz night to celebrate Pride Month!
Pride is equal parts a party and protest, so what better way to celebrate our LGBTQIA+ heroes past and present by putting your queer history knowledge to the test.
Gather your team or come on your own and we'll put you in teams so you can make new mates on the night.
We'll be using Kahoot which means the fastest finger on the buzzer gets the most points!
Prizes will be awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd on the night, plus a bonus lucky door prize.
Included in the prizes will be an annual membership to Masterclass, valued at £170, and tickets to the Pride in Education conference, valued at £45.
Doors open at 6:30pm and the quiz begins at 7pm.
The Common Counter offers a delicious selection of cocktails and mocktails made with fresh, seasonal produce, and thoughtfully-sourced craft beers. Food isn't currently served in the venue so it's BYO food, so feel free to grab your favourite take away en-route and bring it with you to eat at the quiz night.
Date: Friday 17 June 2022, 7pm
Location: Glass House, London (118 Bethnal Green Road, London, E2 6DG). The nearest station is Shoreditch High Street Overground (OR online via zoom)
Price: £8 per person
