Other Community Events to Enjoy!
The CSPC throws amazing parties and hosts many important discussions on various topics. But luckily, we live in a place where there are many more options to dive into sex- and body-positive culture. The list below is just a sampling of some great events coming up in the next month.
We include non-CSPC events in every issue. If you have an event suggestion, please email Marissa at newsletter@thecspc.org and it might make it into our next issue!
September 14
Circus Etc. Cabaret | Sans Solos ($25–$40 | in person)

In “Sans Solos”, artists from the SANCA and ECTA staff and the region will perform new work in the form of duos, trios, and groups.

We're making HUMP! history in 2024 with another all-new lineup featuring 25 MORE brand-new, adult short films, and there's something for everyone in the second half of this year's offerings! You'll experience smokin' hot paranormal encounters, a mind-bending space carnival, spine-tingling ASMR, all the thermal eye candy you can eat, and so much more. It's double the sex, double the kink, (double the pizza?), and double the FUN!
September 20 – 21

Consent Academy | Consent and Leadership Series ($300+ | in person)
Consent and Leadership is a unique opportunity for leaders to deepen their understanding of consent, power, trauma, and accountability. It consists of 8 workshops and one optional lab, each exploring the knowledge, skills, and practices anyone who finds themselves in a position of influence or authority needs in order to foster a consensual space.
September 27 – October 5
Theatre Off Jackson | Hamlet, a Literary Burlesque ($25+ | in person)
Noveltease Theatre, Seattle’s premier literary burlesque company, invites you to avenge a murder most foul in their hauntingly tantalizing production of Hamlet. In this carnal and bloody adaptation of the Shakespearean drama, a young Hamlet knows that literary burlesque is just the thing to catch the conscience of the king.
October 3
First Thursday Art Walk in Pioneer Square (free | in person)
Pioneer Square’s First Thursday Art Walk is the longest running established art walk in the nation. Since the early 1960’s, Pioneer Square has provided a haven for Seattle’s artistic community, housing esteemed galleries, innovative exhibition spaces, and working artist studios alike.
October 10 – 20
Seattle Queer Film Festival ($150+ | in person and online)
Seattle Queer Film Festival has been an important part of the Seattle queer film community since 1996, and has remained the largest of its kind in the PNW. Since then the festival has expanded to intentionally showcase stories reflecting the vast spectrums and intersections of our queer communities.
