Drag Storytime featuring Ophelia

  • Coffee By Design 1 Diamond Street Portland, ME, 04101 United States (map)

Join Portland Ovations and local Drag Queens for an hour of stories and art! Glamorous expert storytellers use the art of drag to read books and lead craft projects at local bookstores, libraries, and community centers around Portland. This fun, fabulous literary experience fosters learning and play, encouraging children and their caregivers to celebrate all kinds of difference in a creative and joyful space.  

OurShelves will be on site, selling a selection of their expert-curated books and subscriptions at this Drag Storytime event.
