SUMMARY:BR Gateway - July 2023
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 2023). \n\nBR Gateway entry is no longer available through Eventbrite\, but 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.

SUMMARY:NaCK
DESCRIPTION:Black Rose’s New and Curious Kinksters (or NaCK)\, is a discussion group designed for people who are new(ish) to the scene. While we highly recommend all new kinksters check out Gateway (the first/last Thursday of each month – always the day before D101) and Dungeon 101 (the first Friday of each month) and come with questions about their experiences\, it is not required\, and we welcome anyone new to kink. Please note NaCK is for asking questions\, there will be no presentation or monologuing. \nWe meet the 4th Thursday of the month from 6:30 to 8:00pm. We are going to try out having virtual NaCK. I know many of us have Zoom fatigue\, but this is a more responsible approach. We’ll chat about whatever comes up – everything from “what do I wear to the club?” to “I had this great scene\, but this part didn’t go well. What do you suggest?” NaCK has a rotating group of experienced kinksters come in to answer questions\, so the discussion is always a little bit different\, and we aim to provide a variety of answers from different D/s roles\, genders\, races\, and backgrounds. \nIf you are still in the beginning of your kink journey\, we hope you’ll come join us to ask questions and share advice. We’d love to have you!
