First Thursday Discussions 7:00 pm
First Thursday Discussions @ Gallery Erato
Jun 1 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
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.   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. Each month’s topic and host will be announced as they are confirmed. 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.

Bondage for Immobilization 1:00 pm
Bondage for Immobilization @ Gallery Erato
Jun 10 @ 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Bondage for Immobilization @ Gallery Erato
As well as being a great addition to other kinds of play, bondage is a lot of fun in its own right. This class focuses on techniques for strict, immobilizing bondage. If you fantasize about watching your partner squirm helplessly in your rope, this is the class for you. One of the best ways to truly immobilize someone is to tie them to the bed (or the couch, or the rack). Although it’s easy to tie someone fairly securely, it is surprisingly hard to completely immobilize them. Making everything tighter isn’t the answer: overly tight bondage isn’t more secure, and it can be uncomfortable or even dangerous. We’ll take a look at ties and techniques that are strict and secure without being unsafe. There are times, however, when you don’t have any furniture to tie to. For those situations, the hogtie is a great choice. One of the classic bondage positions, the hogtie is tremendously fun and versatile. The traditional hogtie is a physically demanding tie, but we’ll look at options for making it more comfortable as well as more challenging. We’ll also talk about how to adapt the hogtie to different body types and physical limitations.   COVID Protocols: All attendees must provide proof of current Covid vaccination. All attendees must wear face masks at all times except when drinking. We will do our best to accommodate medical exemptions Covid-related accommodations. Please contact us at [email protected] before your class to speak to Full Circle Kink’s staff physician. Tickets available here! Important details: This is an intermediate level class. You should be familiar with basic kink concepts and should be able to tie a single column tie. You will need to bring your own rope to this class. We recommend at least two 10-15′ lengths and at least one 20-30′ length. All sexes, genders, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, relationship orientations, bodies, body types, ability levels welcome and celebrated. No late entry will be allowed due to the safety information at the beginning of this workshop. Doors will be locked at 10 minutes after the start time. Water available. Please bring your own bottle or cup. Open to all 18+ Attendance is limited to 24 people. Questions may be directed to: [email protected] About the Educators: Full Circle Kink is a Seattle-based kink education group known for high-quality classes on a wide range of topics. Our classes span the spectrum from beginner topics to deep dives on highly technical subjects.

SEAF: Late Night at Gallery Erato 9:00 pm
SEAF: Late Night at Gallery Erato @ Gallery Erato
Jun 16 @ 9:00 pm – Jun 17 @ 1:00 am
SEAF: Late Night at Gallery Erato @ Gallery Erato
SEAF: Late Night recreates the vibe of Seattle Erotic Art Festival’s late night hours; shaking your tail feathers to unreal DJs whilst surrounded by epic, erotic art. Come dressed to impress and dazzle on the dance floor – from glam to funky to fun to wild costumes, we want you to express yourself! Just remember to cover your nips and bits. There will be a no-host bar making libations available. Our first outing is Friday June 16th, and doors open at 9pm. We are excited to welcome the return of the super talented Haaps, who played Friday night of SEAF this year. Artwork on the walls will be by Nikki Jabbora – Barber, Moon Muse Studio, Stasia Burrington, Bekah Boehm, Erek West, Jim Duvall, and more SEAF alumni. Get your tickets for the inaugural SEAF: Late Night here! Remember, that hot ‘fit or costume does not equal consent to touch. Getting verbal consent is sexy and mandatory. Like all SEAF events, this is an art-based, social party. While public displays of affection are allowed, sexual activity is not allowed due to the liquor license held by the event. More about the June 16th artists Happs One of Seattle’s breakbeat godfathers, DJ Haaps’ career started in 1996 blending sounds from a CD player and a belt drive turntable using a radio shack mixer. With proper equipment, the simple beginnings immediately gave way to active bookings as one of the original residents of Broken Grooves.  Having played throughout the USA and having had long running residencies in D.C., Baltimore, Seattle and San Diego, his sound and stage presence have been appreciated by a broad range of audiences. His last tour around the world included shows in Thailand, London, and Barcelona. Nikki Jabbora – Barber Nikki Jabbora – Barber, a queer Seattle-based printmaker and teaching artist, was born in Bellingham, WA to an Anglo-Swedish father and Lebanese-German mother. She focuses on the way people communicate feelings, culture cues, and emotional safety through symbols. Moon Muse Studio “My music and art are explorations into my identity as an Afro Latina, my musing of sensuality and kink, my love affair with nature, and obsession with bodies in their infinite shapes and beauty.” Stasia Burrington Stasia is a Japanese American artist, born in Texas, raised in Montana and schooled at Cornish College of the Arts and the University of Idaho. She’s been working as an artist full-time since 2009, and currently lives in Seatac with her partner, Nicholas, and their cats, Kiki and Momo. Bekah Boehm Raised in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, Bekah Boehm (pronounced “Baym”) pulls her inspiration from nature as well as her time living abroad in Japan and Australia. She currently spends her time roller skating with friends and plotting her future graphic novel. Erek West Seattle based erotic photographer who has been featured two times previously in the Seattle Erotic Art Festival and gallery shows in Los Angeles and Chicago. Jim Duvall Jim Duvall was born a poor white boy on the banks of the Sumas River who became, among many other things, a sexuality educator and activist. Their art has been shown at the Seattle Erotic Art Festival and many other festivals around North America. SEAF: Late Night is a fundraising event for the Seattle Erotic Art Festival, the flagship program of the Pan Eros Foundation. All proceeds from this event will go towards expenses and producing SEAF2024.

Seattle Nude, Erotic + Boudoir Photography Group 5:00 pm
Seattle Nude, Erotic + Boudoir Photography Group @ Gallery Erato
Jun 25 @ 5:00 pm – 8:30 pm
Monthly Open-Shoot Meetup 4th Sunday of every month 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. 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 the event fee 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 lower level Studio is currently only accessible by stairs. We encourage the use of public transit or rideshare.

CoG seeks out artists with intersecting identities; creating spaces to create work/voice/history. A healing arts project of CoG – Rad (Radical, Accessible, Decolonizing) Care is creating mutual (aid) liberation through community care frameworks centering marginalized intersectional voices. Art is community care. CoG/Rad Care are two sides of the same coin. We are artists who do community care work.
