Wicked Grounds Play Lab: Impact!
Play Lab is a kinky skill share, come indulge in your passions or learn something new!
Join us for this community-forward collaborative space where we tackle a different topic each month.
This month's topic: Impact Play!
Hosted by Miriam Green of Wicked Grounds
Bring your favorite gear, tools and toys if you have them. If you don't have a thing or are just starting out, bring an open mind and a willingness to soak it all in.
We welcome those of all experience levels! Curious newbies and seasoned kinksters alike can come together to build knowledge and practice in a casual, conversational setting. Think less of a play party, more of a kinky salon to collaborate and grow. To keep things open to folks at all experience levels, this space will be both sex positive and sex free.
Our hosts and space monitors will be present to provide assistance and create a safer container for us to play and explore. (If you are an experienced kink practitioner interested in volunteering 30 minutes between 7:30 PM and 10:00 PM as a space monitor for free entry, contact [email protected] for vetting.)
Here's a look at our schedule:
6:30: Doors open

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.

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.
