fwb 🕶️ shades: a BIPOC play party hosted by Amon
An intimate, liberated space created by us, for us.
This gathering is a celebration of pleasure, connection, and community for our BIPOC-identifying friends. It’s a night to exhale into your body, explore your desires, and meet others who share a lived experience of navigating the world in our skin. Here, we center our joy, our intimacy, our healing, and our play.
Expect a warm, curated environment designed to support safety, communication, and enthusiastic consent. Whether you’re feeling flirtatious, sensual, exploratory, or simply curious, you’ll find space to move at your own rhythm. Come solo, with a partner, or with friends — all relationship structures and orientations are welcome.
The evening flows from gentle introductions into open play, with hosts available throughout the night to support grounding, boundaries, and connection. Think soft lighting, deep laughter, slow touches, bold heat, and the delicious feeling of being fully seen.
This party is open exclusively to BIPOC-identifying attendees — including Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern, Pacific Islander, and mixed-race folks. Self-identification is honored; policing identities is not part of this container.
