Queens' Giving: Rooted Together in Joy ft. Mandy Mango

is a volunteer social organization that strives to engage queer (LGBTQIA+) Asian/Asian-American folks within the greater Philadelphia area.

We are excited to host Queens’ Giving on November 8th with . PAQ’s twist on Thanksgiving, where we welcome community members to come together to enjoy brunch, dazzling performances by an all-Asian-American cast of drag performers, and an array of fun guest activities. We invite you to come together in solidarity and create space for joy, connection, and celebration.

Event Proceeds:

This annual fundraiser directly supports 2027 programming and initiatives.
All ticket and raffle proceeds will go to PAQ to ensure the sustainability and expansion of activities for queer Asian folks in the greater Philadelphia area. Tipping is highly encouraged for our drag performers (cash and mobile payments welcomed).

We know the holidays can be hard for queer folx, but we are so so excited to celebrate as a community and with our chosen family!
