ABOUT ABOUT

DON'T MISS OUT! JOIN US FOR TWO UNIQUE SHOWS, APRIL 7TH & 8TH. 

We are very thankful and grateful to be able to host this event on the traditional, ancesteral, and unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples- Sḵwx̱wú7mesh, Tsleil-Waututh & Musqueam First Nations. 

 

Purpose:

            The annual Tantalus Drag Show is the largest institution-wide celebration of queer culture and art at Quest. The show seeks to create a vibrant and welcoming space for people of all identities and creeds to witness and partake in queer narratives through varying art forms. The show acts as a safe space for performers and audience-goers alike to explore gender and sexuality expression. This will be Quest University’s 5th annual drag show, making it a legacy event that is wholeheartedly centred on acceptance and advocacy for minority groups.

Note: All proceeds from this event will be donated to Pride Squamish to further support Queer communities in Squamish.
