Leonard "Len" Keith and Joseph "Cub" Coates were a queer couple in the rural New Brunswick village of Havelock in the early 20th century. Len & Cub features Len’s photos of their life and tells the story of their relationship against the background of same-sex identity and relationships in rural North America of the early 20th century. While keeping their sexual identities closeted, they captured their decades-long relationship via photographs. This remarkable material is as important socially and historically as their story is one of the oldest photographic records of a same-sex couple in the Maritimes.
We invite you to witness the unique love, friendship and lives of Len & Cub to challenge contemporary ideas of about sex and gender expression in the early 20th century.
Curated by Meredith J. Batt & Dusty Green.
Presented by: MacEwan Centre for Sexual and Gender Diversity, Queer Heritage Initiative of New Brunswick, The Arquives, New Brunswick Provincial Archives, and Beaverbrook Art Gallery.
