Description | Magical Realness, an Austin spin on vogue / drag balls |
Event |
It's no new news that I believe queers are the most magical creatures. This weekend, Mouthfeel, the Q, House of Kenzo, and numerous performers are aiming to prove me right. Saturday marks the third installment of Magical Realness – an Austin spin on vogue/drag balls. This is not your typical drag race. All attendees (performers included) are encouraged to don their most psychedelic looks for a cosmic evening that influenced a new wave of queens on ATX stages. But this party is about looking fierce while also feelin' community. Austin PrEP Access Project – the nonprofit that's helping locals more easily access HIV preventative PrEP – is the event's much-deserved beneficiary. "Homosexuality is a psychedelic experience," says Mouthfeel, aka Jeremy von Stilb. "Magical Realness is a space created to bathe once again in that fluid that altered our developing minds."
