Larry Tee Artist Talk

Long before drag became a global industry through shows like RuPaul’s Drag Race, POSE, Dragula, and Legendary, drag artists were constructing a new language of gender performance from punk, camp, performance art, queer nightlife, and Southern eccentricity.

"The Birthplace of Contemporary Drag" highlights the network of performers, musicians, filmmakers, club kids, and cultural agitators orbiting Atlanta’s underground performance scene in the late 1970s and 1980s. See selections from songwriter, DJ, and queer historian Larry Tee's archive.

Visit the show June 5-7 and June 12-14 from 1-7 p.m. at One Gallery, West Hollywood. Mark your calendar for an artist talk on June 12 at 7 p.m.

Admission is free and open to the public!
