Tongue on Cheek: erotic queer films + writing workshop
Watching sex on screen has mostly been relegated to the domestic sphere; gone are the days of gay porn theatres and its attendant thrills of cruising between rows of crushed velvet.
But to encounter the erotic, we must venture out of our comfort zone and come cheek to cheek with the unknown. Gaze into the glory hole, and something long and purple might just gaze back.
⭐️Join us for an evening of queer erotic short films to ignite the imagination and the loins ⭐️ Following the screening, writer Ashe Mckenzie will facilitate an erotica writing workshop with prompts for you to transfigure your most scintillating fantasies into prose.
All profits from the ticket sales will go directly to a Palestinian friend to fund their medical evacuation. For more information, please visit: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-abood-rebuild-his-life
