Coffee shop raises money for Trans Aid Cymru through event celebrating community outside Pride month <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A QUEER art exhibition has opened in Cardiff Central library as part of a coffee shop\u2019s effort to raise awareness about queer artists in Cardiff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alice Turner, marketing manager of KIN+ILK, said: \u201cA lot of companies and corporations will do this type of thing in Pride month and it kind of gets washed out and it feels a little bit performative. So we thought why not celebrate Pride all year round?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said it was fitting that KIN+ILK organised it as more coffee shop staff are queer<\/a> than in most other occupations in the UK, according to the latest Census.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
