Your Southampton Interview with God's House Tower 2024.mp4
From guarding the town from attack by sea to becoming a temporary mortuary and even a prison - God's House Tower - or GHT for short - has had many uses over the years, making it a fascinating part of Southampton's history. Today, GHT stands as a modern arts and heritage venue with a rich programme of events and art exhibitions managed by ‘a space’ arts.
We recently caught up with Hannah, the Venue Manager at God's House Tower, to dive in deeper into the venue's history and latest exhibitions.
Currently exhibiting at GHT until Sunday 27th October are:
🌈 Southampton's Queer Stories: Celebrate pivotal moments in Southampton’s LGBTQIA+ history from the 1970s onwards, featuring extracts from newspapers, video clips of local news reports, personal stories and more
🎶 Everyone Involved by Ian Giles: Experience an immersive installation, including the re-recording of the first LGBTQIA+ protest song from 1972.
Both can be visited for free. Don’t miss your chance to visit these unique exhibitions – head to GHT and explore Southampton’s incredible history! Learn more at https://buff.ly/3hPdJYr
