50 Shades of STFU: Smack to the Future

 Presented by Mistress Viola, 50 Shades of STFU is a kinky play party and social event for femdoms and femme tops and the individuals who serve and worship them. STFU has been home at Sanctuary since 2017.

STFU is always fourth Thursdays but due to Turkey Day, we are moving to the Friday after. Mark your calendars and forgo the consumerism of black friday and spend quality time with kinky folk instead.

The theme this month is “Smack to the Future” – so get inspired to channel some sci-fi looks, think cyberpunk, robots, drones, neon, shiny metallics, vaporwave, or any sexy sci-fi cosplay your little robo-kinkster heart desires. As usual the theme is not mandatory but the dress code is! (See full dress code below.)

What happens at this infamous event?

We aim to create an inclusive space for LGBTQ, pansexual, queer, or straight submissives and their fem tops. If you’re a cis male dom this is really not the event for you. However, if you’re switchy and/or abide by the dress code you are welcome to join us!

Tastings run from 8:30 to 9:30 when we break for a performance moment and then there’s another tastings block from 10ish-11ish. Doors at 8pm and spots for tastings do fill quickly; they are first come first serve and very limited.

As usual, @RedeemerPDX will be there with his diabolical handmade impact toys for sale & @BootblackAmber will be joining us again to care for your leathers.

Playspaces, St. Andrews cross, semi-private areas, spanking benches, and hard points are available.

$20 cash/$22 CC
