Drag Queen Story Hour

I'm going to make it my summer project to have a Drag Queen Story Hour somewhere near me.

The local chapter of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence seems like a good place to start, and my university hosts stuff for kids all the time, so maybe this can be a thing for them too. I think my area may be too conservative to have it at a library, but I'll put out feelers anyway. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

I'm so excited. Thank you to whoever posted about the story hour on the Drag Queen thread.

Does anybody have any thoughts about how to word requests like this? I am dumb with words sometimes.

Is anybody else going to try to get one started in your area?

Has anybody ever been to a DQSH?

Our city library branches have DQSH once or twice a year and it's an absolute blast. Always standing room only, and the children love it. There's one man, retired from anchoring the supper-hour news for 30 years, whose drag persona is Queen Elizabeth and he's marvelous. I don't know how our library started this, but I'd bet it was in cooperation with one of the LGBTQ2 support organizations and in conjunction with Pride Week.

Perhaps you could start with your local LGBTQ2 organization and link to Pride, too?

If I had kids I would totally take them to a drag queen story hour. That sounds like the best thing ever!

Right Allday! My youngest is 16 and I wish this was a thing when he was small. Heck if we had it around here I might take him anyhow
