The Masochist's Guide to Sadism - The Vibe Series
Hosted at Drip Creative Studio.
Every good sadist has the moment where they wonder… am I a monster? Is it okay to like inflicting pain? Is there something wrong with me?
THE ANSWER IS NO as long as it is consensual, enjoyed, and encouraged by a happy little masochist! The perfect pairing: those who like to explore receiving the sensation of “pain” and those who like to give that sensation. This guide to sadism is from the perspective of the masochist, giving an insider view of how a masochist experiences pain, processes, and transforms the sensation with their body, mind, spirit connection!

A Different Kind of Romance
A Different Kind of Romance: an evening curated to remind us that true romance can never die- it is just forgotten. In times when romance seems like a distant memory… we invite you to sink into it again. The simple luxury. The Beating heart. The wandering eyes which meet and melt. We’re bringing it back. This volume three of our conception will be the most special one yet: in our new home we are thrilled to share with you all.
We also share this night of rope and shibari performance featuring poetry with Poetry Brothel and Florals by The Fab Lab. You will even have the opportunity to create and experience your own: ties, poems, and flowers in a curated container.
