GET TICKETS HERE!

Throughout the evening, leather, steel, rope and shadow form the backdrop for an evening of conversation, mingling, and artistic delight. Fetish models including internationally known fetish performer and educator Rain DeGrey, Insign1A, and other community members will render the equipment and environments of Paradox as beautiful living tableaux for artists, sketchers, painters, voyeurs, admirers, and the merely curious.

Whether you're a trained artist or someone who just wants an excuse to sit in a beautiful dungeon and sketch by ambient light, this event is designed to be welcoming, immersive, and creatively charged. If you are already a member of the kink community, this is an opportunity to experience the spaces in a uniquely different way.

Have a friend or partner you’ve been wanting to draw in kinky contexts? Bring them, we’ll have space for that too.

You can expect:

• Live figure drawing and painting throughout the night
• Rotating poses on distinctive dungeon equipment and furniture
• Atmospheric lighting and music
• Opportunities to mingle and converse with the models between sessions
• A relaxed, intimate social environment
• A rare chance to experience Paradox transformed into a living art installation

Guests are should bring:

• Sketchbooks, sketchpads, or canvases
• Portable art supplies
• Charcoal, pencils, ink, markers, watercolor kits, etc.
• A few tables will be available along with some clipboards.
• Feel free to bring a lap desk if desired

Please keep supplies compact and manageable within a shared environment. This is not a classroom, but it is a guided creative space. Artists of all skill levels are welcome.

Some poses, wardrobe, and themes may incorporate fetish aesthetics, bondage imagery, latex, leather, rope, or provocative styling consistent with the atmosphere of Paradox. The focus of the evening, however, is artistic expression, atmosphere, connection, and observation not explicit play. Doors open at 7:30PM.

No photography or video will be permitted anywhere during the event.
