Drag Queen Story Hour

With Veranda L’Ni

 

August 7, 11am – 12pm

At Near West Theatre, 6702 Detroit Ave

Free/donation-based

Registration is required

 

Step into “Veranda’s living room”—complete with shiny shimmery decor, a piano, pillows, stuffed animals, lots of purple, and of course, the Christmas Story leg lamp. From her throne, Veranda L’Ni, Cleveland’s tallest drag entertainer, reads a selection of stories to the group and leads sing-alongs that share messages of love and inclusivity. Come for the books, stay for the dancing and glitter and crafting!

 

We create a welcoming environment where aspiring readers can celebrate diversity and inclusion, and break the stigma around harmful gender stereotypes through exposure to self-proclaimed LGBTQ+ role models.

 

This program is ideal for ages 3 to 8 and their family, and lasts about one hour.

 

This event often sells out quickly. Register here.
