fwb play 🌲 human forest
Welcome to the Human Forest, an immersive touch experience designed to titillate the senses and expand the ways we can connect through communal eroticism. This is an advanced play event for friends with intention to touch and be touched.
The experience is comprised of three rounds. During each round 1/3 of our guests will be blindfolded, undressed to their comfort level, and sitting, standing, or lying down completely still. These are the TREES, the rooted, receiving architecture of our play ecosystem.
The remaining guests are the ANIMALS. They are invited to move freely through the space touching, teasing, and surprising the Trees. They are the kinetic, giving murmuration of our play ecosystem.
This is a wordless experience once we begin our rounds. Moans, sighs, and growls are all invited. We request you save praise, humiliation, discussions about the weather, and anything else for the end of the event.
Before each round, Trees will select sensory toys they are open to being used on them and place them next to where they will be rooted. Consent is communicated through wristbands. Orange means the Tree is open to sensory toys being used on them. Yellow means they are open to touch anywhere their skin is exposed. Green means they are open to touch anywhere, clothing or not. A Tree without any wristbands wants to experience the sounds and sensations of the Human Forest without touch of any kind.
Guests are encouraged to participate as both Tree and Animal. If you wish to participate as a Tree, you must participate in at least one round as an Animal. Guests are welcome to participate only as Animals. Most guests will spend one round as a Tree and two rounds as an Animal.
Participants are invited to bring their own sensory toys and pervertables. Impact is not allowed at this event.
This is a queer-centered event. Participants should expect to touch and be touched by people of all genders and sexual orientations.

SAFTEY IN DTLA
Please be mindful of your surroundings when arriving and leaving. Many of us are longtime downtown residents and have never personally had an issue walking around at night, but DTLA is full of interesting characters from all walks of life, especially on weekends. We love our community and ask that you're respectful of everyone you encounter.
COMMUNITY HEALTH & SAFETY
COVID, Cold, and Flu: We recommend all attendees test for COVID before you arrive. No need to send results - we trust you. If you are feeling sick, were recently exposed to someone who is sick, or test positive, we ask that you stay home to help us keep our community safe and healthy and we will credit you for a future event.
We provide face masks and hand sanitizer at the clubhouse. We run air purifiers during and between events. While we take all the precautions we can to be covid safe, this is ultimately an event with risk of infection. If you are higher risk of infection or adverse effects for covid or other illnesses, we encourage you to err on the side of caution.

If you are sick, were recently exposed to someone who has covid, or tested positive. Let us know ~2 hours prior to an event start, and we will credit you for a future event.
We offer refunds if we cancel an event for any reason. We'll send out a cancellation email. Attendees who wish to receive a refund for their ticket purchase will need to respond within 7 days of the cancelled event. All other tickets will receive a credit for a future event.
