At SF Camerawork, we are proud to announce Charles Victor Brewer’s Pop-Up exhibition Dear Drag, a heartfelt love letter to Sacramento’s vibrant drag community.
Highlighting the spirit, diversity, and creative force of Sacramento drag, this project embraces self-expression, chosen family, and artistic agency through intimate photographic storytelling—celebrating the beauty, resilience, and joy of drag culture.
Through tender portraits and collaborative image-making, Brewer captures the nuances of a community that continues to shape Sacramento’s cultural landscape. Each photograph honors the performers’ individuality while recognizing the shared histories, struggles, and triumphs that bind them together. The series invites viewers to witness drag not only as performance, but as a powerful mode of self-definition and resistance. By centering the voices and visions of local artists, Dear Drag uplifts the everyday brilliance that sustains queer communities. This pop-up exhibition offers a rare and moving glimpse into a world built on creativity, kinship, and unapologetic authenticity.
This exhibition will be on view from Saturday December 5th, 2025 — January 10th, 2026 and will take place at our SFC gallery, located at Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture. We look forward to seeing you and sharing special programming during the run of show, so please stay tuned for more details soon!

Artist Biography
My name is Charles and I am a visual artist with a passion for photographic storytelling. Photography is one of the most influential and impactful forms of communication within our contemporary society and evolutionary history. With photography’s vastness of possibility, the medium creates an exponentially open space for communication, thought and inspiration within our daily life, our understanding of the world around us and as our most previous keepsake of memory.
With a great interest in portrait, editorial and commercial photography, my work displays a range of creativity through a diversely curated portfolio and interests within professional photographic practice. From individual, environmental portraits to large-scale, commercial productions, it is my dedication to work closely with each client in bringing their vision to life through the power of imagery and story.
I hold my Bachelors of Fine Art in Photography from CSUS. Currently I am based outside of Sacramento and travel wherever the creative wind blows.
