7pm-12:30am
A Secret Venue in Downtown Manhattan
Come hungry – to explore!
Indulge your senses (and your sense of adventure) at Bites, a queer-focused kink party where exploration is the appetizer and pleasure is the main course! Our kink-tasting stations will offer a tantalizing array of options, from the subtle tingle of electro-play to the sweet spice of a cane! Sample a cornucopia from Eutopia Risingโs curated menu of kinky offerings, all in a supportive space dedicated to safely exploring exciting new experiences.
NOTE: Voyagers interested in playing chef (as a volunteer demo-Top) at a kink-tasting station should reach out to volunteers@eutopia-rising.com no later than Feb 3rd. References required.
Come see what the buffet has to offer โ you just might like it!

NEVER SURRENDER is a recurring party that has taken several forms over several years, both live and virtual. We currently gather every other month as long as desire and circumstance permit.
We are a place to play, to feel safe, and to reconnect. We are a chill space for good times with good people. We are queer-centered, gender-extravagant, and wholesome as fuck. We are a party and a protest, a ritual and a revel. We are a circle of love spitting naked defiance at a world in crisis.
Make loud noises. Leave lipstick traces. Make memories. Talk, play, show off, or just be a witness to the magic. Come as whatever gender you are, wear whatever makes you happy.
We have a big, beautiful space to spread out in, with an open floor and lots of furniture to have fun with! Lots of beds, furniture, lush lighting, and clean facilities. And a quiet room to chill.

Doors open at 7:00. At 7:45 we will kick off the welcome circle and get acquainted, so you don’t want to miss it. We introduce ourselves, share intentions, and put our hopes out there. Then we set the scene: chat, exchange saucy compliments, dance, be bravely social. Get close, get friendly, maybe try out something new. There’s no pressure to do anything other than what feels right for you.
