FALL 2024

Over Fall 2024, our production team traveled to multiple cities on both coasts, filming 30 interviews in five states with Dragathon emcees and performers. We heard countless stories of joy, resilience, and love for the Portland community, and we cannot wait to share them with you!

Even though we still have a ways to go, we wanted to give you a behind-the-scenes taste of what we’ve been able to accomplish so far.

Thank you for supporting DRAGATHON: Meeting Hate with Joy.
