The Haus of Nunsense

We are the Scottish chapter of the Order of Perpetual Indulgence - a non-religious international collective of queer drag nuns who exist to spread joy, banish guilt, and serve the community. The Haus seeks to meet the order’s mission through a variety of projects and engagements with the community around Scotland. We’re also excited to announce we will be exhibitors at DragCon UK 2025!

Some of the things The Haus of Nunsense does includes:

• Attending events, protests, and vigils (both in and out of drag)

• Blessing people and venues that support the queer community

• Engaging in discussions and advocating for queer liberation

• Leading special occasions such as wedding ceremonies

• Producing online content to help educate and entertain people

• Sharing information and challenging misinformation
