Queering the Collections (QtC) is a network of cultural professionals, researchers, and local government representatives, collaborating to increase the collection, interpretation, and exhibition of queer heritage and histories in the Netherlands.
QtC began in 2014, launched by IHLIA, Reinwardt Academy, Amsterdam Museum, and ICOM / Comcol (International Council of Museums) and Commission of Collecting_ in cooperation with Joeri Kempen. The group organized an international symposium in March 2015, focused on raising awareness of LGBTQI heritage in non LGBTQI cultural institutions, primarily libraries, archives, and museums.
In 2016, key insights from the symposium were published in Queering the Collections: tips & tricks voor het nog zichtbaarder maken van gender- & seksuele diversiteit in musea en collecties.
