Join us for the School of Drag program finale, a showcase featuring performances from the School of Drag students and instructors. The Warhol’s School of Drag teaches teens the history, culture, and practice of drag and gender-bending performance over the course of a seven-week program. Andy Warhol pioneered the representation of gender nonconformity and the use of drag queens in both his film and artworks and embraced this LGBTQ+ community’s cultural practice as an avenue of creative expression.
