Hmmmmm aaaaaahhhh ooooooohhhh

23. February 2024, 7:00 pm – 9:30 pm

How vocal is your sex?

When it comes to using voice in erotic contexts, we are often stuck between the silence imposed by a culture of shame and the cliches imposed by normative pornography. In this workshop, we will work chorally towards more creative and playful uses of sounds and voices to connect to ourselves and each other, and have fun!

Accessibility Note:

This workshop may be challenging for people sensitive to (loud) sounds. People with functional diversity are very welcome.

Who is this event for?

LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid,

Friends describes people of any and all kinds of gender and sexual identities who are aware and respectful of the necessity, needs, and boundaries of a queer safe(r) space and its marginalized community.

When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone’s self-expression and do not assume, presume or project non-consensual ideas onto others. You actively request and use people’s chosen pronouns. You remain mindful of the fact that Karada House is first and foremost a space for queer people that you are also invited to attend. You have a genuine concern for the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people and remain in awareness of heterosexual and gender straight privileges.

Friends don’t have to be perfect. None of us are. We request that we all pro-actively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
