Divas from far and wide descended on the Jasper Legion’s stage, Nov. 28, for the Jasper Pride Festival Society’s annual Diva-Licious fundraiser.

The event included a drag show with performances by Jasper’s own Toni Lester Van Blam, as well as her friends, Ginger Schnapps, Chantelle Lee and special guest Felicia Bonée.

In front of a packed house, the ladies pulled off numerous outfit changes, dramatic dance moves and pitch perfect lip syncing, to deliver a crowd-pleasing performance.

Between ticket sales and a silent auction, the fundraiser brought in $1,800 that will go toward the 2016 festival, which runs from March 17-20.
