Amish Country Queer: A Night of Film, Art & Drag

You've heard of Amish country. Bet you didn't expect drag queens. An award-winning documentary, a photo exhibition celebrating rural LGBT+ life, and a homegrown drag show converge in one unforgettable night. Amish Country Queer is a film about Lancaster's queer nightlife and drag culture, and a story about what it means to be visibly, joyfully, unapologetically queer in a place the world told you wasn't built for you. Tulle Queer is an ongoing portrait series by trans artist Brady Pappas that honors the queer icons of the 717 region. Using tulle as a recurring visual motif, the project creates a vibrant, community-rooted celebration of visibility and resilience. The Angel Hour is Lancaster's second-longest-running drag show, celebrating five years of glamour and sisterhood, created by Charlize Angelz. This is a night of celebration. Of queer bodies, queer lives, and queer autonomy. Of breaking the binaries and changing the narratives we've been handed about where we can live, whom we can love, and who we can be. Queerness has never been confined to city limits, and this night proves it. And this is where the future gets made. Not at the center, but at the fringes. Amish Country Queer: A Night of Film, Art & Drag is presented by Little Echo Productions and co-presented by cinéSPEAK. This event showcases the rich tapestry of LGBT+ culture, featuring drag, film, performance art, and visual arts, making it a must-attend for anyone passionate about diversity and inclusion.
