Come worship at the heel of Venus, our lady of prosperity, desire & conquest —
be your best lace-draped, defiant OR chained and submissive self!
2/10/2024 — 10pm to 4am
Club Six (60 6th St, San Francisco)
Volunteering is closed.
Yes, Venus is the Goddess of love + fertility — but then everybody knows that. We encourage queers + their friends to steer clear of the usual this February...
Consider Touch of Venus an open invitation to join us on our knees as we bow in obeisance to this magnificent goddess' back-pocket, unadvertised superpowers: the ability to bequeath prosperity upon queers, despite the chains of adversity holding us down; power to fearlessly navigate the frequently fickle yet forever-present disctraction that both physical- and spiritual beauty are sometimes reduced to; and the will to immediately see and fully comprehend the lace-like tracery tying any given definition of beauty back to base human desire.
Maybe, just maybe, after we spend quality time becoming comfortable frolicking hither and yon in her various fiefdoms, Venus may bequeath upon us the joy of an unexpected and mutually pleasurable conquest...only the Goddesses know.
