PIX11: Legends of Drag showcases trailblazing elders in NYC’s drag community
The second annual Legends of Drag revue occurred at the Whitney Museum of American Art. It is an event to honor trailblazing drag queen elders who have been leaders in their communities. The queen elders were kicking out their heels and collecting dollars for their performances at the event organized by the New York City AIDS Memorial. Wednesday was HIV/AIDS long-term survivors awareness day and the revue served as a platform for the drag queens to perform and tell stories of the struggles they endured.
