BUTCH QUEEN, FIRST TIME IN DRAG- queer arts.
Butch Queen, First Time in Drag is a queer art/culture project. After noticing a lack of any gay culture in my town, i decided to begin a project to bring queer to small town England.
Currently taking the form of an exhibition and club night, Butch Queen wants to showcase the diversity of creative output from the queer community (queer representing all who identify within the LGBTQ spectrum).
Here i will be bringing you upcoming events, exhibiting artists/performers, interesting art/music/film, and all things BUTCH QUEEN, FIRST TIME IN DRAG.

A QUICK NOTE ON THE TERM QUEER
Just checking out other queer arts festivals, and found this on exposure website:
We use the term “queer” to embrace all forms of sexual self-identification that depart from normative heterosexuality, including transsexuality, intersexuality, and Two-Spiritedness. In addition to signifying greater openness, the term “queer,” which used to be pejorative, makes the important point that hurtful language can be reclaimed for positive identification.
