Queerbeet in Esslingen: Free readings for all ages!
It gets colorful in Esslingen: From June 13th to 15th, the city celebrates the variety of queer literature with the new series of literature "Queerbeet". The association Queeres, the Poppinski shop and the Esslingen city library have teamed up to create a room for the LGBTIQA+community and to increase the visibility of marginalized groups. These events are aimed at children, adolescents and adults, and there is no registration required - participation is free!
The readings take place in the city center of Esslingen. On Friday, June 13th, the series starts at 7:30 p.m. with Maë Schwinghammer, who reads from her debut novel "Everything in between, beyond". Your book deals with growing up as a non-binary person and the associated challenges that many still know in our society.
A colorful program for all age groups
But that's just the beginning: On Saturday, June 14th, at 2 p.m., the DRAG Queen Henni will read in the former fashion house Kögel from the children's book "Two Papas for Tango" by Edith Schreiber-Wicke, which is aimed at children between the ages of 4 and 12. The book tells a heart -warming story about two penguins that build a nest together. These and similar stories are important because they promote the acceptance of different family forms. Children, regardless of their sexual orientation or their family conditions, want representation in the media, as is stated in an article by Echte- Vielfalt.de.
on Sunday, June 15th, at 6 p.m. a book presentation by Kathrin Köller and Irmela Schachtzt to "Queer streaked. Everything about LGBTIQA+". This book, which is particularly aimed at young people aged 12 and over, was awarded the German Youth Literature Prize 2023 in the non -fiction book category. The two authors will illuminate the various aspects of the LGBTIQA+community-exciting for young and old readers!
an important contribution to culture
The events take place outdoors and rain in the Poppinski premises when the weather is nice. The goal of this series is clear: create more visibility for the LGBTIQA+life realities and draw attention to the challenges with which many people are faced.
whether with moving stories for young and old or informative non-fiction books-the "Queerbet" series impressively shows how important it is to live and celebrate diversity. Information about the events is available on the website of the Esslingen city library, where interesting book recommendations such as "Two mums for Oscar" or "Sam visited Grandma and Omi in Great Britain".
An example of a child -friendly information is the book "Two Papas for Tango", which is not only presented on June 14, but also conveyed an important message: different family forms are normal and deserve visibility. Books are an effective means of promoting acceptance and supporting children in their development.
be there and be inspired-the colorful program of the "Queerbeet" series is just waiting to be discovered by you!
