The Mask Up Get Down is a COVID-cautious kinky play party for our immunocompromised members and people who love them! Dress up and/or strip down to your N95/KN95 for some sexy fun, all play allowed in the CSPC House Rules is fair game. We’ll have a variety of BDSM furniture, social areas on each floor, a Pickup Play Board, and light refreshments for your enjoyment!
Our theme for May is Spring Fever! The sun’s out, the flowers are blooming, and so are we! Let Mother Nature guide you as we make like the birds and the bees. Dressing up is optional, but encouraged! Feel free to use this as creative inspiration for your outfit, a headspace, a scene, or for nothing at all.
While removing your mask temporarily during a scene and for food+drink is allowed, please be cognizant that the intention of this space is to prioritize masking up as an act of community care.
