Drag Weekend: Art with a Queen

During this family event, Annie Hart will lead participants in making a variety of handmade artworks they can take home with them, including earrings, bracelets, and flower crowns in honor of gay rights activist and drag queen Marsha P. Johnson. All ages are welcome.

Drag Weekend events are part of a continuing collaboration with local drag artists, many of whom were featured in the 2019–20 temporary exhibit In Her Closet—How to Make a Drag Queen. The Museum has also collaborated with CU Lockdown Trivia on a series of trivia events held in conjunction with other Spurlock exhibits.

The Spurlock Museum acknowledges support from the Illinois Arts Council Agency for this event.
