Join the Pride festivities at Cornerstone Arts Centre 

Published 21 May 2024

Cornerstone Arts Centre in Didcot invites everyone to join in with its Pride this June with a variety of events designed to celebrate and showcase the LGBTQ+ community.

From 13-15 June, there will be something for all ages to enjoy, including drag cabaret, free family-friendly crafting, life drawing, and yoga.

The PHWOAR Next Door: Return of The Queers takes the stage on Friday 14 June. ‘PHWOAR’ showcases an exceptional lineup of Oxfordshire drag performers and burlesque artists in an explosion of laughter and glitter. This show was a resounding hit last year, and the group promises to return to Didcot with a bang.

Cornerstone is committed to involving as many people as possible to celebrate the diversity and inclusion of all its customers involving everyone in its Pride events and has included a free crafting activity that all ages can participate in.

Drop in on Saturday 15 June from 11am to 2pm to add your voice to the centre’s communal artwork.

A range of Pride-inspired workshops for adults will be available at Cornerstone throughout the month:

  • On Thursday 13 June, create art, whether you’re experienced or just want to doodle, at Queer Life Drawing.
  • Or reconnect with your body and mind in Queer Yoga on Saturday 15 June.

Cllr Georgina Heritage Cabinet Member for Communities at South Oxfordshire District Council said: “All of us at the Council and Cornerstone Arts Centre welcome everyone to join in our Pride celebrations.

“These events are safe spaces for all to have fun and be themselves throughout June.”
