The San Francisco Arts Commission (SFAC) Main Gallery is proud to present Juanita: 30 Years of MORE!, an exhibition that highlights and celebrates the groundbreaking and radical work of San Francisco drag icon and denizen of the limelight, philanthropist, fashionista, DJ, activist, community leader, chef, and drag mom to many, Juanita MORE!
Nearly thirty years ago on Halloween in 1992, famed New York City drag queen, Glamamore, also known as “Mr. David,” a longtime collaborator, friend, drag mother, and exclusive designer of every dress she has ever worn since, put Juanita in drag for the very first time. He painted her face and proclaimed, “You’re gonna be hideous!” In retelling this story, Juanita always follows with “Well, I wasn’t and I’m not. I have loved it all and I haven’t stopped since."
