SHOWstudio contributor and CommuneEAST Founder Leanne Elliot Young presents Volume Two of 'IRL CommuneEAST Book Club', in collaboration with Amelia Abraham.

A long-time friend of SHOWstudio and keen panellist, Leanne Elliot Young teams up with Amelia Abraham to host Volume Two of 'IRL CommuneEAST Book Club'.

The key talking point? Amelia Abraham’s Queer Intentions: A (Personal) Journey Through LGBTQ+ Culture, a book exploring the definitions of 'queer' in Western societies.

With the mainstreaming of queer culture in mind, CommuneEAST discuss queer experience beyond the posts and scrolls of social media. Abraham and a panel of guests tackle questions on relationships, gender and sexuality, discussing the challenges faced and creativity born from forming their own queer families.

This month's book club takes place at The Curtain Hotel, EC2A 3PT, on 23 July from 19:30 to 22:30 BST.
