ArtsWestchester, Pioneer Works and City Lore combine forces for this extraordinary exhibition that spans three sites and showcases the artistry and culture of the house ballroom community. This group of work-class Black, Nuyorican and Latino queer and trans people emerged in the 1960s out of the African American drag ball scene in late 19th-century Harlem. Through this exhibition, visitors can see collections of ball flyers, archival photos, costuming pieces along with audio and video.
