3. "Transformation Performance" ~ Nickolas to Nikki

Nickolas A. Kelly is a professional make-up artist and professional drag queen. He will transform into Nikki Frantz Sanchez over the course of the Art Walk portion of the event between 6 - 8pm. You will be able to see the step-by-step process of glue and paint, contours and highlight, bind and tuck, dresses, jewelry and wigs. It's a painstaking process that takes a lot of practice and skill and is incredibly fascinating.

4. "Patio Party at PAP's House" ~ Performances and dance party

The patio will be hopping outside of Park Avenue Photography. The amazing Tranecia Sanchez will turn it out with a sickening performance! Come join the dance party and as the 'Drag to Win' contestants end their tour here at PAP - their coins will be counted and they can hit the patio-stage for a moment to shine. See the pros, the amateurs, the just-for-the-nights and those just there for the art, drag and fun - singing and dancing and whatnot!

About Us

On April 15,2017, 6-12midnight, the Sanford Art Walk gets a shot of glamboyance with an infusion of Drag Queens and drag related exhibits and performances. Come as you are or Drag for the night. Drag Queens of all varieties (pros, wannabes, just-for-the-night, as well as Fauxs and Kings) are invited to parade the Art Walk route, play "Art & Drag" games and attend a fabulous after-party & show at the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in downtown Sanford, Florida. “Art Is a Drag” is produced by the Sanford Art Walk. Originating from the point of view that visual art & Drag are both pure forms of creativity and self-expression - whether good or bad, tasteful or tacky, both take guts to produce and even more to exhibit. The 'arts community' of Sanford believed that combining the two art forms for a special Art Walk evening would create at minimum a celebration of the act of self-expression, at best an Art Happening that will be exhilarating to all who encounter. The Sanford Art Walk is produced by the Historic Sanford Welcome Center which is a 501c(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to enrich the Sanford experience through the promotion of Sanford as an arts, culture, recreation and historic destination.
