About this event

3 hours

Our familial festivities officially come to a close with friends, music, art — and local drag royalty The Darlings! Take a final stroll through Flavourcel's CRAWL SPACE, thrill to music courtesy of DJ Ziggy Zaya, and experience an experimental drag troupe that CBC praises as "pushing the boundaries" and "turning conventional drag upside down."

About The Darlings

The Darlings are a multidisciplinary, non-binary drag performance collective based in Musqueam, Squamish and Tseil-Waututh territory, colonially known as Vancouver, BC. Their work challenges the boundaries of conventional drag, and explores genderqueer, non-binary, and transgender experience through the use of movement, poetry, performance art, theatre, and immersive/interactive installation. The Darlings are Continental Breakfast (Chris Reed), Maiden China (Kendell Yan), PM (Desi Rekrut), and Rose Butch (Rae Takei).

Organized by

Queer Arts Festival + SUM gallery

The Pride in Art Society produces, presents and exhibits with a curatorial vision that favours challenging, thought-provoking work that pushes boundaries and initiates dialogue, through the Queer Arts Festival (QAF), an annual, professional, artist-run, multidisciplinary festival at the Roundhouse and at the SUM Gallery, located in the Sun Wah building in the heart of Vancouver’s Chinatown.

We work on the unceded territory of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ílwəta? (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples. To these host nations, we say thank you for your stewardship of this land since time immemorial. We recognize their sovereignty, as there are no treaties on these lands, and we are committed to building right relations based on respect and consent.
