What do drag queens and children have in common? They love dressing up and all things sparkly and fancy!
Drag Story Hour (DSH) is just what it sounds like—drag queens reading stories to children in libraries, schools, and bookstores. Drag Story Hour captures the imagination and play of the gender fluidity in childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models.
