Olly Alexander and more create art pieces for Stonewall Season Closing Celebration

The event marks the end of the charity’s inaugural Season

On Thursday 10th November, the city’s gay glitterati will descend on the effortlessly cool Tanner Warehouse on Bermondsey Street, for an evening of tinkling champagne flutes, sick beats, and oscillating conversation.

The Stonewall Season Closing Celebration marks the end of the charity’s inaugural events Season, celebrating and revelling in LGBT spaces. We’re totally on board with that – revelling in LGBT spaces is what we do best!

The DJ line-up epic, with nightlife connoisseur and international party girl Jodie Harsh teaming up with fashion guru Gok Wan, to bring you the best beats this side of Brixton.

But the focal point of the night is a unique and very special art auction. It is made up of arresting works from some of the UK’s best known LGBT creatives, including Olly Alexander (above), Gareth Pugh and Henry Holland. The works will be available for attendees to purchase, and there’s a silent auction taking place as we speak.

Stonewall organised the Season in response to a worrying rise in LGBT hate crime, and as a tonic for the recent closures of so many of our city’s gay venues. For more info and tickets, head to stonewallseason.org.uk
