SUMMARY:BR Gateway - January 2024
DESCRIPTION:Black Rose (BR) Gateway is a great way to get a lot of information about the local kink community before you commit any unintentional faux pax because everyone (except you) knew about the community and social expectations. \nWe cover topics ranging from from Consent to Privacy\, Negotiations to Aftercare\, and ensure that everyone is aware of our aggressive stand against certain types of behaviors. You can learn more about what you can expect from BR Gateway by reading: \n\n\n\n\n\nThinking about attending Black Rose Gateway (overview of the program)\nGateway Attendee FAQ\n\n\n\n\n\nBR Gateway and Dungeon 101 work together like a lecture/lab combination class; you can get a lot from attending either one\, but you can get a lot more by attending both. \nGateway is in person at The Crucible. Proof of primary vaccination status is REQUIRED and masks are strongly encouraged (this is current in 2024). \n\nBR Gateway entry is only available for purchase at the door; Dungeon 101 tickets are the same. You cannot purchase D101 entry at BR Gateway. \nASL Interpreters are available upon request to accessibility@br.org. Please give us two weeks notice. \nEmail gateway@br.org for more information about this program\, or info@br.org for more information about Black Rose or its other events.
