LGBTQ+ Story Gathering Coffee Morning - Good Enough Project

20 February 2026

You are invited to come along to the Birnam Arts cafe on Friday 20th February between 10:00-12:00, to share your story and find out more about the project. We look forward to seeing you then! 

No need to book, drop by anytime between 10:00-12:00!

 

Good Enough project asks how shame shapes LGBTQ+ lives and how shared stories can create visibility, solidarity and pride.

Shame is rarely spoken of, yet it affects us all.

Its traces are felt in our bodies, our workplaces, our relationships and our sense of self.

By drawing on the historical knowledge of Switchboard and actively engaging with LGBTQ+ people today, Good Enough project brings these conversations into public space.

 

Stories are gathered through:

  • IN-PERSON COFFEE MORNINGS - come and say hi and share with us your stories.
  • OPEN CALL WEBSITE – inviting anonymous contributions from across Scotland.

  • ONLINE WORKSHOPS – small-group sessions exploring storytelling and movement via Zoom.

 

 

For more details about the project please email goodenough@nocturndance.co.uk

We had not planned to present a hybrid festival, however that changed when one of our main authors tested positive for Covid. I greatly appreciated how the team worked with us to pivot and present remotely in part, making full use of your enhanced video conferencing equipment. As a result, we were able to deliver quite complex events with several elements all showing on screen simultaneously. The audio-visual quality was excellent, and our audiences were delighted that these events could still go ahead, in spite of Covid. The author in question was really pleased that he could join us on screen and remarked that he had not been so well supported in this way at any other festival.
