Melbourne Out Loud: Midsumma Edition

A celebration of going out, being seen and being yourself

Celebrate the evolution of queer culture in Melbourne through the lens of legendary photographer Rennie Ellis.

From the 1970s to the 1990s, Rennie Ellis captured a rich array of key moments for the LGBTQIA+ community. From early gay liberation marches and joyous party scenes in venues such as Inflation and the Hardware Club to alternative Arts Balls and the fashion scene, his photographs burst with creative energy and give us a vivid portrait of life as it was.

The Midsumma edition of the Melbourne Out Loud exhibition, curated with the Vice-President of the Australian Queer Archives, Angela Bailey, extends from State Library Victoria's Victoria Gallery and onto the Forecourt. Don't miss it.
