Proud Heritage online museum opens doors

U.K. - A new online museum opens it's doors.

The Proud Heritage online museum is the first public step in a three year journey to create a national museum reflecting British lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans history and cultural ancestry in all its rich diversity.

This is more than just a staging post to creating a physical presence, though that is our goal. The internet creates new ways to collect, share and exhibit our own life experiences, local history and collective memory. Together. It will help develop professional and community networks, disseminate ideas and good practices, and help build regional collections. But most of all it makes collecting and exhibiting a shared, interactive experience combining documents, objects and user-generated content, like images and video.
