Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a charity, protest, street performance group and self-constituted Order of queer nuns, were founded in San Francisco in 1979 and have since developed a global reach. Using drag and Catholic imagery, the Sisters attack sexual intolerance and satirize gender and morality through public performance, education, and community involvement.
