"King, Queen, or Creature?" Participants (18+) will be invited to unleash their inner drag persona—be it a King, Queen, or otherworldly Creature—through the art of paper collage. Tuffy will guide the group in creating "drag self-portraits," offering creative prompts and even helping participants choose their own drag names. The vibe is "Art Class meets Happy Hour"—high on creativity, low on pressure, and full of community spirit.
