A conversation on the history of drag in NYC

Here's information about an event of potential interest this Wednesday evening (Nov. 29) at 7 p.m.

Via the EVG inbox:
Village Preservation will be joined by journalist, historian, and photographer Elyssa Maxx Goodman to discuss her newly published book, "Glitter and Concrete: A Cultural History of Drag in New York City." Goodman will delve into the meanings of drag, both then and now, its history in the city, its role in the development of the East and West Villages, its sociocultural impact, its future, and more. 

The reading takes place at the Church of the Village, 201 W. 13th St. near Seventh Avenue. RSVP for free here.
