LIVE! FRIDAY, NOV 6th — PALM SPRINGS CULTURAL CENTER 
9:30 PM — THE LATE SHOW — tickets on sale now! (doors 9:00 PM)
BACK BY ROARING DEMAND! The 7:00 PM show sold out — don't wait for the next ice age: The Late Show's seats will go fast. 
Cloned from 100% authentic drag DNA, JURASSIC DRAG stomps back into the desert to celebrate PALM SPRINGS PRIDE 2026 — starring the prehistoric dino-divas COCO PERU, JACKIE BEAT, SHERRY VINE, and VARLA JEAN MERMAN, and hosted by stand-up comedian ROZ HERNANDEZ! 
One-part musical spectacular, one-part old-fashioned variety show — our Jurassic specimens will impress with stunning feats of song, dance, and um… comedy. "Dinosaurs DO still roam the earth," gasped one bewildered RuPaul's Drag Race fan — and honey, these dinosaurs still devour the stage.
Our divas have survived a hostile world and trekked the earth for a combined 170 years — which, in drag time, is exactly 65 million. So we've gathered them under one roof while we still can. Because let's face it, folks: the meteor could hit any minute.
See them before they're extinct.&nbsp;
GET YOUR TICKETS! $45–$80. 
Apex and Inner Circle Meet &amp; Greet packages also available

What is the Point? An Evening Talk with Buddhist Teacher, Gen Kelsang Lekma
Monday, November 9, 2026 6:00-7:15pm: Evening Talk 7:15-8:00pm: Enjoy refreshments and chat after the talk
In this talk, special guest and Buddhist Teacher, Gen Kelsang Lekma will explore one of life’s biggest questions: what is the point? At times, we may find our world leaving us feeling increasingly purposeless, whether through anxiety about the future, changing ideas about work and health, or just the realization that the things we thought would make us happy often fail to satisfy our desires.
Drawing on Buddha’s ancient wisdom, Gen Lekma will examine patterns that keep us trapped and will explain how to view life differently so a deeper purpose can be found. Everyone is welcome to learn how to find meaning and what is obstructing it.
You'll discover: * Why modern life feels empty of meaning * What causes feelings of pointlessness * How to discover your sense of purpose

$15 per class | Free for Members <a href="https://www.meditationinpalmsprings.org/event/what-is-the-point-evening-talk/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Register online</a> or pay in person
