Defending Queer History ft. Ace Archive
Tuesday, October 28, 2025
6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Fabville @ Somerville High School
81 Highland Ave, Somerville, MA 02143
Join Lark Aster from the Ace Archive project to learn how to take queer history out of the neoclassical marble vaults of academia and put it into the hands of queer people.
Ace Archive is a participatory queer history project to archive the history of the asexual and aromantic communities. Lark is going to talk about carnivals, manifestos, amoebas, copyright law, copyleft law, 19th-century German sexology, The Chastity Underground, and that zine they found in Providence that changed everything.
Learn how a simple question turned into an international effort to collect, preserve, and educate about the history of a community you won't find in the history books. From a laptop in Lark's bedroom to a museum in Sydney, we'll cover it all.
