History of Portland Drag with Poison Waters

History of Portland Drag with Poison Waters

June 3rd | 1 – 2:30 pm

As far back as the 1930s and 40s, Portland has had a thriving LGBTQ+ scene. However, until the 80’s, it was largely underground to protect the identity of Queer individuals.

Today, artists take center stage to celebrate, advocate, and give back in numerous ways.

Join Poison Waters for a unique walk down our local memory lane, and explore the artistry, joy, glitz, and politics of Drag performance.

This event is FREE & open to the public.

Reservations are required.

Sponsored by Trimet and the City of Beaverton.
