The Twin Cities Daily Planet recently published an article by Lance Hegland about the discussions he plans to facilitate at Sexy Spring about disability, aging, dating, romance, and sexuality. Thanks to Lance for submitting the article and to the Daily Planet for publishing it!

All skill-share facilitators, and anyone excited about Sexy Spring, are encouraged to promote Sexy Spring in any way they can! Go out there and spread the word!

$10 Suggested donation, no one turned away for lack of funds, no advance tickets

Once upon a time there were some sexy, open-minded people looking for some fun after a hard day of learning about each other, sexuality, gender, and sex…Please join us on Sexy Spring Saturday (June 14) for some “Fairy Tales” (and perhaps some faery’s tails, if we’re lucky) from the amazing performers who will entertain us as part of the Sexy Spring V Cabaret!

You’ll hear stories told in words, music, dance, drag, film, and burlesque from performers like Heidi Arneson, Venus DeMars, Brooke Aberlin, Justin Leaf, Kats Fukasawa, Sweet LillyBee, Catherine Lundoff, Sexualis, and Dr. Jacky Wackensmack and Dollface! Arrive early, the show is certain to sell out!

Volunteer and Presenters Meeting

Saturday, May 31st, 2008

On Tuesday June 10th we will be holding a little shindig for anyone
interested in volunteering at Sexy Spring as well as everyone that plans
to present. It’s at the Firehouse in Powderhorn Park at 821 East 35th
Street from 6-8. We’ll have two kind of separate groups, one for
presenters on facilitating good skillshares and one for anyone that wants
to help during the event. For people interested in being a Vibes Watcher
(maintainers of the safer space) there will be some training and
discussion about safer space and dealing with conflict. If you’re
interested in helping us with anything from set-up to break-down to food
to hanging out at the desk come and hang out with us! There will likely
even be food!

Let me sum up:

Tuesday June 10th, 6-8 pm

p.s. if you can’t make it to this meeting and want to volunteer or
present, we’ll have another meeting the morning of the 14th. This isn’t
mandatory for presenters, but strongly encouraged!

Such things can include but aren’t limited to ASL interpreters and large print or Braille reading materials. We will do our very best to try and fill such requests emailed to us by Friday June 6th with the resources we have available.
