The City of West Hollywood presents its annual celebration for Harvey Milk Day and start of the WeHo Pride Arts Festival (May 22 – June 30) with the first annual José Sarria Drag Pageant - Live performance by NINA BO’NINA BROWN from RuPaul’s Drag Race. José Sarria was the first openly gay person to run for office in California and helped pave the way for Harvey Milk’s successful run for office. The competition is hosted by Maebe A. Girl, and judged by Mayor Sepi Shyne, and Queen Mother Karina Samala and Emperor Eugene Maysky of the Imperial Court (an organization Sarria helped found). Drag Queens and Kings are invited to compete for the crown in 3 rounds: Formal Wear, Question and Answer, and Talent. Anybody interested in entering the pageant can DM on HIT or DM @thehitapp on Instagram. Contestants can arrive as early as 4pm, but no later than 6:00pm. An unsecured room and restroom will be provided, but contestants are encouraged to come to the pageant fully dressed and made up. All contestants will compete in the formal wear round. 10 contestants will be selected to enter the question and answer round. From those 10, 3 will be selected to show their talent. This is a public space —talents should be suitable for all audiences. If your talent needs music, please have your music track (non-explicit) prepared for the DJ. The top 10 contestants will receive a cash prize.
