“This unique funding program,
specifically targeted at present-
ers, has allowed our jazz series

great artists who are having an

acquired by the Portrait Gallery of
Canada. Toni has also been awarded a

grant.

The Drag King Project (2005) is the result
of Toni’s work with two Vancouver drag

It is comprised of 26 transmounted
photographs, a 40-minute video of drag
performances, and wall-mounted vinyl

the participating drag kings.
