Join us as we celebrate our cherished LGBTQIA+ community and local “Werks of Art” this Pride Month, in partnership with Salem’s own Miz Diamond Wigfall! This spectacular lineup features the Hometown Queeros collective of Salem drag artists, along with special guests Cain and Landon Cider (season 3 winner of the Boulet Brothers’ Dragula).
Before the evening dance party, PEM will host a film screening and panel discussion with the Hometown Queeros, featuring a runway walk by young workshop graduates from NAGLY.
After-Hours Dance Party + Drag Show
8 pm–midnight | Main Atrium
Join us for a euphoric evening of drag and dancing! Dance the night away and enjoy a fantastical photo booth by Courtney B Hall, the “Light Witch”, along with a drag show featuring Landon Cider, Miz Diamond Wigfall, Maxine Harrison, Buster Pants, Stardust Cropper, Miss Michael, Dick Kayin, Cain and Peewee Vermin. The event will include refreshments and a cash bar for guests ages 21 and older.
