Boybutante Ball is returning for its 36th year of celebrating self-expression and acceptance with performances from some of the region’s most creative and skilled drag performers. This year’s theme is “Divas Royale—All Bets on Miss Thing.” Boybutante Ball is the main event of the Boybutante AIDS Foundation, founded in 1989 to raise money to support the fight against HIV/AIDS through advocacy, education, outreach and direct client services in Northeast Georgia. Accompanying Boybutante events include the Drag Search at Hendershot’s on Apr. 7, where queens and kings will battle it out for a solo spot at the Boybutante Ball, and Drag Bingo with Sophia Lo’Rent, Lacie Bruce and Karmella Macchiato at the 40 Watt Club on Apr. 9.
