Much of this material is rare, and it represents a unique and invaluable insight into the history of sexuality. The foundation relies upon the support of volunteers and is happy to hear from people who can contribute their time, expertise, and passion.

Unapologetically libidinous, adventurous, and sexually-creative, the volunteer-run Kinky Salon Seattle organises and hosts events in the Seattle area for its members and guests. Kinky Salon Seattle celebrates hedonism - but with an emphasis on intelligence. This organisation is for intentional hedonists who want to explore the limits of pleasure in a safe, consensual way. It offers a refreshing alternative to sex clubs. The salon was formed in San Francisco back in 2003, founded by Polly Superstar and Scott Levkoff. Kinky Salon Seattle followed in 2015. Inclusive, community-spirited, socially-conscious, and, above all, creative, it is now a much-loved fixture in Seattle's kink community. All Kinky Salon Seattle events are focused around creativity; this is the cornerstone of everything they do. The salon currently hosts between two and four big themed events during the year. Additionally, there are smaller social events, including monthly social gatherings, giving members an excellent opportunity to meet new people and involve themselves in a burgeoning community. The Kinky Salon Seattle themed events are something to behold. You can expect everything from electrifying costumes to ***less, stimulating cabaret performances (complete with renowned DJs), a broad range of workshops on all aspects of sexuality and BDSM - and much more. Prepare to be dazzled and surprised. Full details on everything on offer are on the Kinky Salon Seattle website, which serves as an essential online resource for kinksters. The organisation's Kinky Consent Booklet is available online, along with a Party and Play Space Code of Conduct. You can volunteer via an online form. One of the highlights of Kinky Salon Seattle is its extensive lending library. This not only includes informational and educational materials but playful toys. Better yet, the website states that the salon's 'sexy' librarians are always there to provide assistance - including the possibility of demonstrations. What's not to love about that?

Northwest Leather Calendar is an invaluable events listing website devoted to Seattle's flourishing gay male leather community. Whether you're looking for life-changing workshops or hot play parties, the calendar is there to guide you. Northwest Leather Calendar picks which events it lists, and as the the name suggests, the emphasis is firmly on gay men and leather. However, you are also likely to find associated events such as those aimed at bears. All leather events in the Seattle area are listed on Northwest Leather Calendar. However, only major regional and national events are given space. Gay male leather lovers will find full details of leather board meetings and nights at leather bars. But the calendar does not include munches in its listings. Workshops form an integral part of the leather community, and, as such, Northwest Leather Calendar gives them the space they warrant. Again, the focus is on workshops for the gay male community. However, the calendar also lists Pansexual workshops which are known to be welcoming to gay men and wider LGBTQ leather folk. The rule of thumb is that these workshops should not only have a heterosexual theme. Would your event definitely be of interest the gay male leather community? If the answer is yes, then reach out to Northwest Leather Calendar for a listing. Northwest Leather Calendar notes that decisions on what they list are based on the text and imagery of websites and announcements of events. You should include your name, the date and time of the event, and where it is going to be held. Additionally, you must provide the cost of the event, plus relevant contact information. It would help if you also gave Northwest Leather Calendar a short description of your event. In order to be included in the weekly e-mailed version of the Northwest Leather Calendar, you should send your listing information by 6.00 pm Pacific time on a Monday. Helpfully, the theme of events listed on the calendar is highlighted by icons. From boots to fisting to leather boys to watersports, it's all signposted. Because we all know it's vital to understand what we're getting into!
