February 3, 2026 10:00 am - 11:30 am

Participation is very encouraged and your own questions are centered, whether they're about a first hug, a new relationship, a workplace, or sex.

About Consent Academy:
Consent Academy is an educational collective founded in 2016 in Seattle, WA, currently with staff and volunteers all over the world. We believe consent is a part of everyday life, and its practice builds stronger, safer, and more connected communities. Our approach incorporates disciplines of psychology, sociology, public health, psychotherapy, and personal coaching to create a systemic view of how consent impacts everyone, from the bedroom to the boardroom.
Consent Academy is a program of the Pan Eros Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit organization. All of our profits support our educational programming. For more information, visit us at www.consent.academy.

First Thursday Discussions
First Thursday Discussions
February 5, 2026 7:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Gallery Erato, 309 1st Ave S, Seattle, WA 98104, USA
The Pan Eros Foundation is pleased to create space for people to meet, talk, and share conversation and ideas. Each month, Pan Eros will host a discussion at Gallery Erato with a different topic to encourage the sharing of ideas and to create and expand communities. Pan Eros means “all love” and we support participants in cultivating and celebrating their sexuality. To support this mission, our monthly discussion topics will range among the educational and artistic realms.
This month's discussion is dispersed among our attending artists of the exhibit "In Bloom". Artists will be near their art and chatting with people about the themes around growing in our relationships and person identities and how that is depicted in and aided by art.
Our goal in hosting these meetings is to grow a community that has rich conversations about sexuality. By fostering open discussions, we hope to end the stigma around sex and sexuality so that people may live more authentically and happily.
All sexes, genders, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, relationship orientations, and religions are welcome and celebrated. Kindness and a willingness to respect another point of view are expected.

Mean Ground Rope
Mean Ground Rope
February 8, 2026 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Gallery Erato, 309 1st Ave S, Seattle, WA 98104
Purchase tickets here!
Rope can be the perfect tool for intensity, suffering and sadomasochism. This hands-on class will prove that a little bit of rope can get a huge reaction, even without suspension or uplines. We will learn ties on the toes, calves, crotch, and torso, then learn to combine them to create a full scene or predicament.
None of the ties in this class are complex, but tops will need a single column tie, tight tension and good rope handling to achieve the proper effect. Bottoms need experience with pain processing and communicating while in pain.
Important Information:
- Pay-what-you-can scholarships are available for all Pan Eros Foundation workshops. If you need financial assistance, please email Leah at education@pan-eros.org
- No late entry will be allowed due to the intimate nature of this workshop. Doors will be locked at 10 minutes after the start time.

[Sold Out] Bondage for Beginners
[Sold Out] Bondage for Beginners
February 14, 2026 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Gallery Erato, 309 1st Ave S, Seattle, WA 98104, USA
Interested in adding some bondage to your life but not sure where to start? This fun and accessible introductory class will introduce you to the basics of kink and rope bondage. By the time you’re done you’ll have all the skills you need to safely and confidently start exploring bondage on your own.
This is a bondage class rather than a knots class, so our focus is on teaching a small number of versatile techniques that you can use in all kinds of ways. All the ties in the class are easy to learn and can be used for many different play styles.
The point of bondage is to connect with your partner, so we’ll also cover fundamental kink concepts like consent, safewords, negotiation, and aftercare. To help you put it all together, we’ll have fun demos of the techniques in action, along with suggestions for how to figure out what kind of kink works best for you.
Single students are welcome, but this class is most fun if you take it with a partner. We’ll provide practice rope if you don’t have your own. The 38 page color handout includes all the class material as well as additional ties to practice at home.
Important details:
- Pay-what-you-can scholarships, funded by 4Culture, are available for all Pan Eros Foundation workshops. If you need financial assistance, please email Leah at education@pan-eros.org
- All sexes, genders, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, relationship orientations, bodies, body types, ability levels welcome and celebrated.

Seattle Nude, Erotic + Boudoir Photography Group
Seattle Nude, Erotic + Boudoir Photography Group
February 22, 2026 5:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Seattle Nude, Erotic + Boudoir Photography Group
Monthly Open-Shoot Meetup
4th Sunday of every month
5:00pm-8:30pm
Hosted at Gallery Erato
309 1st Ave S Seattle, WA 98104
Info: snebp@pan-eros.org
Overview
Seattle Nude, Erotic + Boudoir Photography Group exists to facilitate networking and the
creation of art in the PNW photography and modeling communities while providing a safer,
semi-public space to have first or repeated interactions with co-creators.
Beginning January 23rd, 2022 the group organizer, Thrice, will be running a monthly meetup where we discuss and shoot nude, erotic, and boudoir photos, share knowledge and inspiration, and network with others in our creative communities.
First hour free (5-6pm)
Suggested donation of $10 per person (6-830pm)
What to Expect
After an initial hour of mingling and conspiring, all the fun and excitement of creation starts
when we close the doors at 6pm. Come introduce yourself, mingle and meet, then we will collect donations, close the doors, and shooting can begin. At this point, no more attendees will be admitted so no new faces surprise you while you’re shooting. Some gear will be available to rent or borrow, we will go through the available supplies at the start of the event.
Open Shoot Format
Throughout the event, photographers, assistants, and models will use the large, versatile
shooting space to collaborate, have fun, and make art. Come with an idea in mind and a
photographer in tow or meet someone here and come up with a spontaneous shoot inspired by the surroundings and your model’s style. Bring all your own gear, ready to shoot, and explore the space to find the perfect spot. Take advantage of any down time to connect with your fellow creatives, find inspiration, share your knowledge and experience.
Consent + Consideration
Make sure that you have the consent of all bodies in your frame before you shoot. Watch your backgrounds and try not to walk through active shooting space you’re not participating in as a courtesy to all. Lingerie, suggested nudity, and nonsexual nudity are welcome throughout the space. We ask that explicit or overtly sexual acts (use your judgement, ask if you’re not sure) be shot downstairs. We will continually evaluate the ways we use the space and adjust for the comfort and needs of our community to best facilitate free creation. No one is required to shoot with anyone else or to shoot any content they do not wish to participate in. Pressure is unacceptable, both photographers and models are expected to take “No” as a complete sentence any time it is given.
Our Hosts + Facility
Gallery Erato and the Pan Eros Foundation are pleased to offer those who create art that
explores themes of sexuality, gender, relationships, identity, orientation, and love a place to
showcase and create their work.
This 6000+ square foot space in Pioneer Square spans 2 floors. The ground floor Gallery is fully accessible. There is a 3″ lip at the front entry and a ramp is available upon request. The lowerlevel Studio is currently only accessible by stairs. We encourage the use of public transit or rideshare.
