I was thrilled and honored to be a performer at, and the MC/Hostess of, the annual Fresh Fruit Festival Awards, held on April 30th at the legendary and very chic Player's Club at 19 Gramercy Park South in New York City. The awards, affectionately known as "The Fruities" honor outstanding art and performance in the Festival and also give kudos to outstanding dedication and devotion to the Arts and the LGBT Communities. The Fresh Fruit Festival is NYC's grassroots, multidisciplinary international festival of LGBT arts & culture. City Council members Rosie Mendez and Gail Brewer were among those who celebrated with our fruity friends and family who make the NYC Gay arts scene.
