San Francisco Public Library launches LGBTQ focused TV show

• Similar to primetime talk shows, the free series will also include performances and audience participation.
• It will be hosted by Bay Area artist and personality SNJV, who co-founded the LGBTQ+ South Asian collective Parivar and combines dance, drag and cinema to create performances.

What they're saying: "We are beyond excited to celebrate our vibrant Queer and Trans community" with this new program, Hormel Center librarian Kevin Darling said in a press release.

• "This inaugural event ... is just the beginning of our journey to amplify bold voices and stories in this new format."

What's next: The first event will take place Jan. 28 at 6pm in the Koret Auditorium at the Main Library. VERA!, Armenian American drag king and dancer, will guest.
