VideoWatch: LFC holds LGBT+ panel event at Anfield store

Published

Watch a wrap-up video from a special event held at the Anfield club store on Monday night as part of Liverpool FC's support for the LGBT+ community.

The club recently teamed up with Homotopia, a local LGBT+ arts and social justice organisation, to produce four bespoke pieces of digital artwork designed to represent the Reds’ LGBT+ fanbase.

The artwork – created by local LGBT+ photographer and artists Michael Parry and Margie Houlston – is currently featured on a billboard on the side of The Albert pub in front of the Kop at Anfield and will then become an exhibition inside the stadium’s retail store for 12 months.

To celebrate the launch of the artwork, the club held a panel event to discuss the role of LGBT+ supporters, inclusion in football and more, including contributions from Homotopia, The Anfield Wrap and Kop Outs.

The event formed part of LFC’s ongoing Red Together campaign and took place in between its dedicated Stonewall Rainbow Laces fixtures – LFC Women v Arsenal last Sunday and the Premier League visit of Leeds United this Saturday.

Take a look in the video above.
