The first of today's Drag Queen Story Hour events in Bristol, scheduled to take place at Filwood Library at 10am, has been postponed due to 'concerns over safety'. This morning's (Friday) event was set to be the fourth story hour in Bristol - the first three were scheduled to take place yesterday, however one event at Henleaze Library was postponed, too.
A sign on the door of Filwood Library this morning read: "We apologise for the late notice, but today's DQSH has had to be postponed due to concerns over safety. Ticket holders should contact the library for further information."
Drag Queen Story Hour is currently on a UK summer tour, having started at Reading on Monday, July 25. The event is fronted by the Storytime Drag Queen herself, Aida H Dee, reading stories with the aim of 'engaging children's creativity and love for reading by giving them a brand-new, positive experience, one page at a time, all the while learning and communicating'.
