Step into a glitter-filled road trip comedy that became a cult classic. The 1995 film To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar follows three unforgettable drag queens — played by Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes, and John Leguizamo — as they travel across America on their way to a beauty pageant in Hollywood. When their car breaks down in a small town, they unexpectedly shake up the lives of the residents with humor, kindness, style, and a lot of fabulous energy.

Funny, heartfelt, and surprisingly ahead of its time, the film blends comedy with themes of friendship, acceptance, and self-expression. Join us for a free screening of this colorful ‘90s favorite that still charms audiences decades later.
