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. 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.

11 "Oops!" Harm Reduction, Intimacy, and Learning in Kink "Oops!" Harm Reduction, Intimacy, and Learning in Kink October 11, 2026 11:00 am - 1:30 pm Gallery Erato, 309 1st Ave S, Seattle, WA 98104 Purchase tickets here: https://www.strangertickets.com/events/182913247/oops-harm-reduction-intimacy-and-learning-in-kink Scenes are made and broken by how you adapt to the unexpected. Sometimes this means heading off or recovering from a major problem, but much more often it's small things. Did you notice that the other person is having a harder time than usual with one of their favorite toys? Why did you feel angry when the one thing happened and what did you do about it? Remember that time you made a radical pivot mid-scene and it was awesome? How do you respond to a broken whatever? Nothing ever goes exactly the way you planned. External events happen, gear fails, ramifications occur. We run with something that's working unexpectedly well. We try new things and do them imperfectly or discover the fantasy was hotter. People make mistakes and are complicated. You can pre-think safety, own what happens, make course corrections, communicate, and choose to learn. These are things you can do before, during, and after play to decrease the risks of harm, and increase the benefits of error. This class will include presentation on skills, and talking through real-life incidents small and large to practice the skills . Many of the incidents will be accompanied by video. Some of Russell's many imperfect moments have been recorded by camera crews, which provide a unique opportunity to dissect exactly what happened, why, how our awareness developed, what we did about it, and how that worked out. Some of this material can be emotionally challenging, but you will come away from the class with tools for when you encounter the unexpected in your scenes. Important Information: 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 assistdirector@pan-eros.org No late entry will be allowed due to the intimate nature of this workshop.

Relationships with dominant/submissive dynamics are so widely varied, each one is different from the next. That’s the incredible beauty and liberation of D/s relationships — they are designer, highly customized, made to order for exactly the people who are in them right now. However, that can also be the challenge: how do you customize a D/s relationship to exactly what you want? In this D/s intensive, we will cover the major building blocks of D/s relationships, so you can decide which ones are the right fit for you. We'll have lots of time to present and discuss concepts (with some nerdy charts and graphs), and we'll do some experiential somatic practices to feel our dynamics in our bodies. You will learn: How to identify your relationships' Areas of Control How to set up protocol for fun, for function, for erotic pleasure, and for long term training Somatic exercises for transitioning in and out of dynamic Maintaining D/s when going through hard times, physically disability, or major changes and more! This intensive is geared toward folks who are new to D/s, but people who are experienced with D/s relationships are very welcome and will learn new concepts and structures to enhance their dynamics. This intensive will focus on the foundations and building blocks of D/s, so some more advanced topics won't be covered. We'll have plenty of time for discussion and Q&A, where you can bring your particular questions to Sinclair and to the group. Important Information: 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 assistdirector@pan-eros.org No late entry will be allowed due to the intimate nature of this workshop.

Please let us know by email if you have any access needs or things that would aid in your learning. Questions may be directed to: assistdirector@pan-eros.org About the Educators: SINCLAIR SEXSMITH (they/them) is a queer trans butch, a leather dominant, and a writer, focusing on individual, interpersonal, and institutional systems of power. They study dominance and submission, social & restorative justice, the energetic body, trauma, and transformation. They have been in the kink communities since 1999, and orchestrate transformative kink scenes through written erotica and ritual practice. They actively explore the philosophies of power exchange and the practicalities of sustainable, long term D/s. As a leather community member, titleholder, and organizer, Sinclair has presented and performed 200+ times at 75+ venues, including International Ms. Leather, Dark Odyssey, SXSW, Harvard, and Oz Kink Fest. Their short story collection, Sweet & Rough: Queer Kink Erotica, was a 2016 finalist for a Lambda Literary Award, and they have edited 7 queer erotica anthologies. Find Sinclair online at http://sugarbutch.net/find-sinclair TRU (she/her/they/them) is a genderqueer kinkster who loves to geek out on sex and intimacy and strives to understand and de-clusterfuck the impacts of systemic oppression on all bodies. Tru understands that embodiment practices cannot be separated from social justice work, and they believe individual and collective liberation happens one body, one breath at a time. Tru’s curiosity and wide range of interests are evident in the work they offer — as a Sacred Intimate, sex and intimacy coach, a dancer, teacher of a movement mediation practice, a potter, and a lawyer. They have facilitated workshops focusing on intimacy, touch, BDSM skills, dance, and clay, as well as provided diversity and anti-oppression trainings. Some trainings that inform Tru’s work include: Sacred Intimacy Through a Tantric Lens; Theater of the Oppressed Facilitator training; Betty Martin’s Like a Pro; Open Floor teacher training; and the action-based methodology of psychodrama. Tru uses ritual, touch, dance, and art in their work, and loves using their body for exploration, learning, and general shenanigans. As a multi-racial genderqueer body, Tru understands what it feels like to not belong to any particular place or culture, and what it means to re-write the stories we have about identity, sex, and the right to experience deep embodied pleasure and joy.

25 Seattle Nude, Erotic + Boudoir Photography Group Seattle Nude, Erotic + Boudoir Photography Group October 25, 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. 309 1st Ave S Seattle, WA 98104 https://www.pan-eros.org/galleryerato/ COVID Precautions All attendees are encouraged to be vaccinated and/or negative test results within 72 hours of the event start time.
