Gloves & Glitter — A Drag Softball Fundraiser ✨????
Lace up the cleats, dust off the eyeshadow palette, and get ready to throw it down in heels and high socks — Gloves & Glitter is back, and this year’s fundraiser is going to sparkle.
Join the Steel City Softball League for an afternoon of drag, dingers, and a whole lot of joy. Come for the softball, stay for the wigs — or come for the wigs and stay for the softball. Either way, we promise it’ll be the most fabulous double-header you’ll see all season.
We’re absolutely thrilled to welcome our special guest, the one and only Dixie Surewood, who’ll be bringing the glitter, the sass, and quite possibly some cleats to match her gown.
