Below those words are the words, "TRANS JOY with Kate Bornstein" in big purple text. In the bottom right is a photo of Kate Bornstein, laughing and with one hand to her chest. Kate has a blond bob, round glasses, and a bright green, purple, and blue jacket. Behind Kate are purple, blue, and green paint splotches that matches her jacket. Coming out of Kate's mouth is a speech bubble that reads, "Gender is not sane. It's not sane to call a rainbow black and white." Underneath the speech bubble are the words, "Wed, May 19 5-6:30 pm" in small teal text. The AS logo is in the bottom left corner.

The Show Must Go On!⁠

Beause of, you know, the Annual Q***r Resource Center Drag Show won't look the same this year as before. But that doesn't mean it won't be a fun gay time! The 29th Annual QRC Drag Show will be a zoom panel focusing on the history of drag, followed by a Q&A featuring local drag performers. The event will be on Thursday, April 29th, from 6-7:30pm PST. ⁠
⁠
Guest performers include... Rita LaRue, Issa Mann, Kylie Mooncakes, Londyn Bradshaw, Kris Gender, Betty Desire, and Rikki Sensation!⁠
⁠
The Annual Q***r Resource Center Drag Show is a drag show benefit put on by the AS Q***r Resource Center every year. This year will mark the 29th year of the drag show tradition! On a non-pandemic year, the Drag Show is a live event in the Performing Arts Center, and features about 8-10 drag performers with an audience of about 500! All ticket profits were divided evenly between local Bellingham organizations, Lifelong and Sean Humphrey House, who are organizations that provide health and housing resources to the LGBT community and individuals with HIV/AIDS. ⁠
