Allies show up to support Renton taproom's monthly Drag Queen Story Hour
The show went on Saturday for a Drag Queen Story Hour at a Renton taproom, after planned protests and vandalism earlier in the week.
Allies rallied around Brewmaster’s Taproom to support its monthly drag queen story hour it’s been holding for a year and a half. This time, it was a packed house.
“We got national exposure this week when people got all upset about it,” Sylvia O’Stayformore said to the crowd.
The taproom’s owner, Marley Rall, said social media posts began spreading about a planned protest earlier this week, sparking a surge in threats and insults. On Wednesday, Renton Police said someone shot what appeared to be a BB or pellet through the window.

Gay rights activists gather in support of ‘Drag Queen Story Time’ in Renton
Gay rights activists turned out in support of a Renton bar and its “Drag Queen Story Time” event for kids. The Brewmaster’s Taproom was the victim of what appeared to be a hate crime.
Someone fired into the business. So, the owner decided to move the event inside and it went viral.
A large group of activists showed up in support.
If those who oppose Drag Queen Story Time were here, they never made themselves visible. The rally was designed to drown them out and to make sure the event went on as planned.
