StoneCrabs’ Out On An Island presents a special viewing of:

Our Stories Matter

This documentary highlights inspiring LGBTQ+ people and places, all with an Isle of Wight connection.

Meet feisty lesbian Joe Carstairs – the “fastest woman on the water” – who raced in the Solent in the 1920’s. Learn about renowned architects and partners Paget and Seely, who made their home at Mottistone Manor.

The Island has a rich and poignant LGBTQ+ history. Like lifting a stone on the beach, we were unsure of just what we would find in our research, but the courage and achievements of our creative community and the resilience of ordinary people is unmasked for all to see.
