Be & Do
Proud to be LGBTQIA+ in Barking & Dagenham
Welcome to Be & Do our arts-led project designed to support and strengthen Barking & Dagenham’s LGBTQIA+ community. Led by Studio 3 Arts, Be & Do uses creativity as a vehicle to start conversations, tell stories, bring LGBTQIA+ people together and challenge stereotypes and myths.
The project is funded by Barking and Dagenham Council, delivered in partnership with a range of local organisations and spearheaded by local artists Matty May and Grace Duggan.
