Cyberspace – Are you a knotty knitter? A sexy stitcher? Or perhaps you create another form of erotic visual art? If so, then join us for an erotic arts and crafts night! This is an opportunity to work on your projects in a sex-positive environment with other sex-positive people, so bring whatever project you are working on (sketches/drawings, needlecraft, jewelry, paintings, knitting, whatever you can fit through the door). As long as you can clean it up at the end (and it wonât set the building on fire), you can bring whatever you are working on. If you donât have a project to work on, you can come hang out, browse some of our beautiful art books, or make a collage out of old porn pages! Tarts and Crafts! There will be two models, snacks and beverages, and a raffle for some sexy and/or artsy prizes! Donât forget to bring your sketchbooks because the models will be posing for drawings and sketches (not photography) for one hour, 7-8 PM. NOTAFLOF, with a suggested donation of $10-$40 at the door. Please refrain from wearing scents and fragrances such as perfume, cologne, and heavily scented deodorant. Most art supplies are fine, but if you are bringing supplies that may have an offensive smell, please email centersexculture@gmail.com to check with us. Accessibility: There are two gender neutral bathrooms in the lobby, and the site is wheelchair accessibile. CSCâs Pop-Up Sex Culture Expo! Tickets: Letâs talk about sex and San Francisco! Featuring a keynote conversation with porn great (and Bay Area native) Nina Hartley interviewed by Whorecast podcaster and The Whore Next Door author Siouxsie Q, plus three great panels, a live literary reading, and tables by local arts and sex-related organizations. THIS SATURDAY! Get up, grab some brunch, and come on over! Panels: Sex & Politics; San Francisco’s Sex History; Space for Queer/Sex Art in Today’s City. PLUS readings!

Our Rent Just Doubled” Fund. After a quick dinner break weâll be back with a burlesque and performance nightâlots more info coming VERY soon! After our day of juicy discussion, let’s get frisky with some of SF’s great burlyQ performers! Get an eyeful, win prizes, and thrill to the sexy, sultry, saucy art of burlesque!
