Event Details
What exactly are “pleasure gardens,” and why can’t you have sex in them? What’s so campy about camping at Versailles? Is Mother Nature a dominatrix? Join drag queen & landscape “snarkitect” Capability Pink as she romps her way through the development of Europe’s upper-class gardens, discovering exactly what it has to do with Philadelphia and the current climate emergency. Come get lost in the hedge maze of history — and burn your way out.
For the second year in a row, GALLERY Land Collective is proud to present our Pride Month exhibition: Capability Pink Designs A Pleasure Garden With You! by Jeff Joseph Katz, a drag performance turned landscape architecture lecture. Every Friday in June, performances will take place opposite David Rubin's Antique Garden Tool Collection, with implements spanning the 18th through the 20th centuries.
