ResiStories: Living Archives of Pride
ResiStories: Living Archives of Pride - Celebrate Pride at the Museum of Vancouver!
This August 22, we are honouring our local 2SLGBTQIA+ icons and histories and the “living archive” today’s community embodies and represents.
Emceed by Shay Dior, prepare to be wowed by drag performances from Continental Breakfast, Count Cupid and Mx Bukuru—who are taking inspiration from queer historical moments and icons to create their sets. Plus, scholars of queer culture and archives—and drag of course—will share info on the lesser known references in each performance. All of which will be followed by a panel discussion between the artists and scholars.
Come be entertained and educated and meet living archives of pride!
This event is created in partnership with the UBC Public Humanities Hub and is the final installation of our “ResiStories” series of programming.
