DAYS OF LOT: Drag Queen Story Hour Coming to More Public Libraries
A public library in Virginia Beach, VA is the latest location set to
host a “Drag Queen Story Hour,” (DQSH) event for kids as young as two.
Several of these events involving drag queens reading to children in
libraries, schools, and bookstores, have been held across the country as
part of a national initiative. The programs have also taken place
internationally.

library events show a variety of emotions as they attempt to process

CBN News confirmed that an event is listed on the Virginia Beach Public Library’s
website.
“Drag Queen Story Hour With Gillette Black” is slated for July 28,
August 25, and September 29, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at the
TCC/City Joint-Use Library.
