The Depot was brimming with fun and excitement, with more than 40 people filling the space, as Associated Students’ “Punk N’ Drag” show took the stage on Thursday night. Students transformed the space with rocking musical and artistic performances.

Three drag performers and three bands performed and brought their unique styles and energy through hyper-detailed makeup and creative performances.

Local bands like Ansible, Tess & The Details and Enough provided a vibrant atmosphere for the audience while the drag queens prepared for their performances.

Each band had 45 minutes for their set, creating a smooth transition between the shows and the drag queens’ performances. 

Emily Timmons, assistant manager of The Depot and host of the event, thanked the audience for their participation and the artists for delivering a show.

“It’s a great opportunity to represent the university with bands from all over the Bay Area,” Timmons said.
