Not a lot of info available or a poster but I just stumbled along info about an upcoming Pride event…happening this coming Sunday!!! It’s Pride Asia’s annual festival celebration and it’s happening on Sunday, May 28th at Hing Hay Park in the International District from Noon to 4pm.

Not surprisingly, it’s hosted by the matriarchs of not only Seattle’s Queer Asian community, but of Seattle’s Drag community as well, Aleksa Manila and Gaysha Starr with a slew of talented performers on hand as well.

Pride Asia’s festival is a fun way to start Pride month and in a great location…check out the festival and have some dim sum at a local restaurant and do some shopping at Uwajimaya and you’ve got your Sunday afternoon planned.

About the Author: Michael Strangeways

As the Editorial Director/Co-Owner, Michael Strangeways writes, edits and does about a million other jobs for Seattle Gay Scene, Puget Sound's most visited LGBTQ news, arts and entertainment website now celebrating its 14th year as a media outlet. A semi-proud Midwesterner by birth, he's lived in Seattle since 2000. He's also a film producer who would like you to check out the Jinkx Monsoon documentary, "Drag Becomes Him" now available on Amazon.com. In his spare time, he gets slightly obsessive about his love for old movies, challenging theater, "otters", vodka, chocolate, "I,Claudius", Lizzie Borden, real books made out of paper, disaster films, show tunes, Weimar era Germany, flea markets, pop surrealistic art, the sex lives of Hollywood actors both living and dead, kitties, chicken fried steak, haute couture and David Bowie. But, not necessarily in that order.
