The Imperial Sovereign Court of the State of Montana (ISCSM) works to educate and advocate for the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, two-spirit, intersex, queer, and allied community while promoting tolerance through the production of drag performances. The ISCSM works to eliminate the historical oppression of marginalized individuals by creating a safe and welcoming environment through the production of events that explore multiple gender expressions in a fun and educational atmosphere.  

The ISCSM is pleased to offer scholarships to enrich the lives of our community. These scholarships are to honor and promote academic excellence among Montana students. Each scholarship we offer is a minimum of $500 and we will select at least recipients each academic year. Traditionally, our winners are honored guests at our annual Coronation.
