Class 7-8:30, Latex Mixer + Play: 8:30-10PM

Are you intrigued by latex?

The look...

The smell...

The feel...

The outfits...

ALL. THE. GEAR!

Whether you're a seasoned fetishist, a budding rubber enthusiast, or a curious kinkster, join Knotasha for a latex intensive followed by a fetish wear mixer & play party!

Is latex for me?

After helping dozens of friends of friends find their love for latex, Knotasha believes:

1) if one of your love languages is touching or being touched AND

2) if you enjoy sensual fabrics or textures (like velvet, satin, cashmere, leather, lace, nylons)

... It is highly likely that you might like or even love latex.

What 7-8:30PM

We'll discuss:

- What are good basic pieces to get to start your exploration and/or collection

- Where to buy latex

- How to care for and maintain your latex

- How to get others interested in latex

- How to intensify your enjoyment of latex

- How to curate an entire latex wardrobe

- How to incorporate other kinks with latex

Knotasha will give a live demo of dressing and undressing latex outfits (neck-entry latex, stockings, skirt, bra).

During class, please keep genital areas covered and avoid direct contact with Kink Store furniture. If wearing latex or using lube, please bring your own towel or item to sit on. Be mindful of lube and its potential contact with surfaces.

Latex Mixer + Play: 8:30-10PM

This mixer is for everyone! Attendees are welcome to chat, dance, and play at their comfort levels. Wear your pretties, share your love, ask or answer questions, mingle, or simply observe. If you don't have latex yet, please wear standard black or anything that you feel sexy/flirty/comfortable in. If you prefer to get dressed at the venue, please be mindful of others needing to change or use the bathrooms.

We will provide light, non-alcoholic mixers such as bubbly water, Angostura bitters, lemon juice, and still water.

Level: This class + event is for everyone!

Format: This is an organized class that incorporates visuals (PowerPoint and demonstrations), explanation, and class participation. Demonstrations will include some nudity.

Who to Attend: All gender identities and relationship types (singles, solo poly, couples, polycules, and more) are welcome.

What to Bring: Please bring a notebook and a pen/pencil to take notes.

What to Wear: Wear what makes you feel good. Latex (if you have it) or something else that you feel sexy, flirty, or comfortable.

PLAY PARTY RULES (PLEASE READ):

If you'll be playing with silicone-based lubricants, please bring your own rubber sheets or protective barriers (like waterproof throws/blankets). Silicone and oil-based products can permanently damage upholstery, so it is required to keep our space and equipment in good condition for everyone.

ENTHUSIASTIC CONSENT is required for all touch and play at this event. It must be freely given, revocable, informed, engaged, and specific (FRIES).

Examples of enthusiastic consent:

"Can I give you a hug?" → "Yes! I'd love that!"

"Want to try (blank) together?" → "Absolutely, I've been wanting to try that!"

Examples of Non-Enthusiastic (or Absent/Unclear) Consent:"Can I hug you?" → "...sure, I guess.""Are you okay to continue?" → "Mmm, whatever."If you are uncertain whether enthusiastic consent has been given, treat that uncertainty as your answer. Consent has not been given.

It is always appropriate to pause and check in. You might say something like:

"How would you feel about taking a short break?"

"I want to make sure we're both fully on board... Can we pause for a moment?"

"I wasn't completely certain that was a full yes, so I'd like to stop and check in with you."

Pausing is never the wrong choice. It demonstrates care, self-awareness, and respect for everyone involved and creates space for an honest, comfortable conversation.

- Do not assume anyone's presence implies availability.

- Negotiate all scenes in advance. No up-negotiation during play.

- Be mindful of those in active scenes or aftercare. Do not interrupt, crowd, or hover.

- Wipe down any surfaces with disinfectant or degreaser where fluid/lube contact may have occurred. We will have cavicide for disinfecting and isopropyl alcohol for lube degreasing.

KINK STORE EVENT CODE OF CONDUCT - By purchasing your ticket(s), you agree to comply with the entire CoC:

Golden Rule

Treat one another with kindness and respect.

Consent

Consent is required for all touch and play at this event. It must be freely given, revocable, informed, engaged, and specific (FRIES).

• Never touch anyone without permission.
• Negotiate all scenes in advance. No up-negotiation during play.
• Do not assume anyone's presence implies availability.
• Do not join or interrupt a scene without invitation.
• If someone asks to be left alone, respect that immediately.
• Obtain explicit consent before photographing or involving others in your scenes.

Privacy and Discretion

What happens here stays here. Treat all information about attendees and activities as confidential. Do not "out" anyone regarding their identity, orientation, kinks, or attendance.

Community Care

Don't yuck someone's yum. This means respecting that others may have different kinks, interests, and ways of expressing themselves. What isn't your thing may be someone else's joy. Keep negative reactions, comments, or judgments about others' consensual interests to yourself. This is an LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC-inclusive space. Everyone is expected to show up with respect and care for others. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for:

• Discrimination or bias based on race, gender, sexuality, disability, or body size.
• Harassment, intimidation, coercion, bullying, or unwanted advances.
• Non-consensual behavior of any kind.
• Misgendering, deadnaming, or invalidating anyone's identity.

Intoxicants & Altered States

We do not sell or serve alcohol at this venue.

We recognize that substances affect capacity to consent, and we prioritize everyone's safety. If you appear unable to give or receive clear consent, a host may check in with you privately. Continued concern may result in being asked to pause play or step outside. This is never a punishment, but a community care measure. Our priority is keeping everyone safe and able to enjoy the space.

Health and Hygiene

• Please stay home if you are feeling sick or experiencing symptoms.
• Be scent-aware: avoid heavy perfumes, colognes, or strongly scented products.
• Be thoughtful and considerate of all bodily odors when attending and throughout events. Come prepared, as personal hygiene is your responsibility. If you need basic hygiene supplies, please ask a host.
• Respect others' disclosed allergies or sensitivities.

Respect the Space

Treat staff, hosts, and the venue with care and courtesy. Return any equipment to its proper place and report any damage or safety concerns to a host immediately.

• Wipe down any surfaces where fluid contact may have occurred.
• If you need cleaning or disinfecting supplies, please ask a host.
• Silicone & oil-based lubricants: Guests must supply their own rubber sheets or protective barriers. These products can permanently damage latex surfaces and furniture, and we cannot allow their use without adequate protection in place.

Scenes and Play

• Be mindful of those in active scenes or aftercare. Do not interrupt, crowd, or hover.
• Respect established play areas, furniture, and equipment; ask a host before using anything unfamiliar.
• Any play considered edge play must be disclosed in advance to event hosts. This includes rope suspension, any form of breath restriction, electrical play, and similar high-risk activities.
• Allow adequate space between scenes and bystanders.

Safewords

Agree on safewords before any play begins.

• "Red" or "Safeword" will immediately stop a scene. Alert hosts if necessary.
• "Yellow" (or equivalent) indicates a limit or request to reduce intensity.
• If verbal safewords are not possible, establish a clear nonverbal signal in advance. For example, three deliberate head shakes as a "no" signal, or dropping a held object.
• Honoring a safeword is non-negotiable. Ignoring one is a serious violation.

Safer Sex

• Communicate openly and honestly about STI status when relevant.
• Safer sex supplies will be available when needed.
• Respect others' safer sex boundaries and practices without question or pressure.

Safety Monitors & Dungeon Monitors

Dungeon Monitors (DMs) and hosts are here to support safety and consent. They have final say and may stop any scene. Please:

• Inform DMs or hosts in advance of any edge or atypical play.
• Follow their instructions promptly and without argument.
• Seek them out immediately if you witness any consent violation.
• Be patient; they may be attending to another matter.

Phones and Photography

No photography, video, or audio recording is permitted unless explicitly stated otherwise for a specific event. Keep your phone stored and screens dimmed in play areas. Violations of this policy are taken extremely seriously.

Aftercare

Aftercare is a vital part of responsible BDSM play. Check in with your play partners following a scene. Be mindful that aftercare needs vary; some may need space, others physical comfort, or time to decompress. Hosts may have a designated aftercare area or resources available. Please ask if you need support.

Newcomers & First-Timers

We welcome people who are new to events like this. If you're unsure about anything, ask a host. No question is too basic. We encourage experienced community members to be patient and welcoming mentors, not gatekeepers.

Concerns and Reporting

If you witness or experience a consent violation or safety concern, please speak with a host or event representative immediately. All reports will be handled with discretion and taken seriously. You will be believed and supported. You may also email dusty@kinkstore.com if you wish to remain anonymous. We are committed to accountability and learning.

Consequences for Violations

Violations of this code of conduct may result in:

• A verbal warning from a host or DM.
• Being asked to stop a scene or activity.
• Being asked to leave the event immediately.
• Being banned from future events.

Serious violations involving non-consent will result in immediate removal and may be reported to relevant community networks.

Please note that the upstairs loft area is not currently accessible to persons using wheelchairs or mobility devices. Both restrooms are ADA-compliant.

We welcome guests with all access needs and encourage you to reach out in advance so we can do our best to accommodate you. This includes communication access needs such as ASL or kink-friendly interpretation services, which typically require advance booking.
