Northside non-profit Caracole, which provides safe and
affordable housing and support services to people and families living
with HIV/AIDS, knows how to put the “fun” in “fundraiser” — we’d say
drag show set in a bar is a pretty solid recipe for success. Come out
for Caracole’s inaugural drag queen pageant, where female Caracole
employees and other supporters get dolled up for a female drag show.
Each lady performs alongside a professional queen from Cincinnati’s own
Imperial Sovereign Queen City Court of the Buckeye Empire (a nonprofit
court of drag gurus and do-gooders who work to benefit Cincinnati’s
LGBTQ community). Bring those dollar bills — the queens will be
collecting tips (all of which benefit Caracole), and the lady who raises
the most will be crowned supreme. Free. 21 and up. 7 p.m. doors; 8 p.m.
show. Sunday, March 3. Northside Tavern, 4163 Hamilton Ave., Northside. 513-542-3603,
northsidetav.com or caracole.org.
