At ARE, we know that drag has always been more than entertainment, it's activism, resistance, joy, and community care in motion. Drag artists have long stood on the front lines of LGBTQ+ liberation and HIV advocacy, using their voices and stages to raise awareness, fight stigma and uplift our communities.

As we deepen our work in healing-centered care, we're honored to collaborate with as well as support performers who bring both artistry and heart to this community.

We invite you to support upcoming local drag performances, including the upcoming 3rd annual Diva's Christmas Special Benefiting ARE!

Our CHR team wants to send a big thank you to Chief Lewis with the Wi******er City Police Department for having us at the table today to ensure the new officers have community resources before they hit the streets.

This relationship, we think, can be one of success and not stigma. Coming together for the community as a whole is how we succeed. We’re so excited to have had this opportunity today!
