This program will take place directly after the 1:00 public tour of Homecoming Queen: The Wonderful World of Utica Queen, a 4,000-square-foot exhibition showcasing the incredible artistry of Southern Minnesota native and drag performer Ethan Mundt, star of Season 13 of the Emmy-winning pop-culture phenomenon “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” The exhibition features 20 of Mundt’s self-made garments and accessories, original design sketches, editorial photographs by photographers Ben Seagren, Dan Little, Eric Magnussen, Liam James and Trevor Beaty, and a short documentary by filmmaker Tatyana Kurepina.
