Unleash Your Pride at The Art of Drag!
K Space Contemporary is thrilled to announce “The Art of Drag” – a vibrant, community-organized drag show that will light up K Space Contemporary on Saturday, June 17th, from 7 pm to 10 pm1.
Step into a world of glitter, glamour, and pure joy as we celebrate the rich history and the transformative artistry of drag. The stage will be set on fire by four fabulous drag performers, with pulsating beats from DJ Crybabyy and DJ JELLOxSHOT filling the air. Pose for a colorful photo op, sip on some delicious drinks, and shop from local vendors selling pride merchandise2.
Join us in our goal of raising $5,000 to support K Space Contemporary and the Coastal Bend Pride Center. You can contribute by purchasing tickets or becoming a sponsor – just complete the online form available on our website3.

Here’s a golden opportunity for those looking to sell pride items – we’re on the hunt for vendors to add more colors to our event4. If you’re interested, head to our website K Space Contemporary and find the “TAoD Pride Vending” tab under “The Art of Drag” to apply.

K Space Contemporary
K Space Contemporary was established by key members of K Space Art Studios, a cooperative art studio formed in 1995 founded by Erick and Raychelle Schaudies. The “K” in our name refers to the building’s historic roots as the Kress Five & Dime store built in 1917. From it’s inception in 2001 to early 2007, the non-profit organization operated out of a 700 square foot gallery located within K Space Art Studios on the third floor of the building. After reorganizing in 2006, K Space Contemporary began plans to open a more accessible and visible community-based facility. The new street-level venue, K Space Contemporary, opened October 13, 2007. K Space Contemporary is the oldest alternative art space in the Coastal Bend region. The primary goal of the organization is exhibiting emerging and mid-career artists from South Texas. K Space fills a void, not met by other local organizations, by providing a forum for under-represented artists whose works are experimental, non-commercial, or difficult to exhibit due to unusual installation requirements or site-specific ideas.
