D’Arcy Drollinger, a drag performer and owner of San Francisco LGBTQ+ nightclub Oasis, has been named the city’s first-ever drag laureate, honoring her outstanding creative achievements.
Last week, San Francisco Mayor London Breed announced her selection of Drollinger for the new role. Breed’s office created the role in conjunction with the city’s Human Rights Commission and the San Francisco Public Library, which also oversees the city’s poet laureate position. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, Drollinger’s duties will include fostering relationships between the drag and LGBTQ+ communities and city agencies, creating new drag events for the city, being a spokesperson for San Francisco’s LGBTQ+ community, and helping to preserve and promote the art of drag in the city.
