6:30 PM | A Conversation on Civic Engagement, Drag & The Arts 🗣️
SoHo | The Leslie-Lohman Museum | 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM | More Info
Drag as art and entertainment has been around for centuries and is not exclusive to LGBTQIA+ culture, yet finds itself in the crosshairs as queerphobia and transphobia are weaponized by political extremists.
We’re bringing an illustrious group of advocates, artists and performers together to discuss how civic engagement and political and cultural activism are woven into the fabric of drag and queer artistry.
