About Drag Story Hour: Drag Story Hour (DHS) celebrates reading through the glamorous art of drag! At a DSH event, drag storytellers read picture books aloud to kids utilizing the traditional “storytime” structure, a format widely recognized by librarians and educators as an effective and fun early literacy experience for children and their families. Our chapters produce joyful events where kids can express their authentic selves and become bright lights of change. We envision a world where kids can learn from LGBTQ+ stories and experiences to love themselves, celebrate the fabulous diversity in their communities, and stand up for what they believe in.
