S[KIN]: A POC SPACE FOR PLATONIC TOUCH

Skin Hunger is the desire to have meaningful physical contact with another person. We live in a society that sexualizes all forms of touch,  limiting the amount of platonic touch we are allowed to experience. For those of us who are more skin hungry or who are not in romantic/sexual relationships, we often go long periods feeling touch deprived. S[KIN] is a gathering for people of color to experience platonic, consensual touch, hugs, cuddles, and other forms of non-sexual intimacy. 

S[KIN] is a private event. All participants will have to complete an online screening survey in order to attend. Every gathering will begin with practice exercises around consent, boundaries, and saying and hearing no, and communicating our needs, so that we can all have the same foundation before platonic touch is shared. 

This event will be potluck style. You will be asked to bring a dish or drink to share and to contribute $10 towards the costs associated with this event.
