Seven popular Northalsted destinations are showcasing their DJ party events along with drag performers and hosts at the Cuervo Tradicional Dance Party at Aldine.
Miss Toto, a bodybuilding, international DJ/ drag sensation, takes the Aldine Dance Party Stage on Sunday, Aug. 13 from 1 - 2 p.m.
“I moved (to Chicago) because of the Black queer community and I wouldn't be living here and thriving without being a part of it,” she told GoPride.com in 2022. “I have traveled all over the world and have never experienced something as powerful and dynamic as Chicago drag."
