FAQ
Why are member tickets less than regular tickets?
The truth? Most if not all of our programming is designed specifically for our members: kinky people who crave authentic and genuine interpersonal connections, and here’s why…
At any one of our events, programs or socials, you can expect to be met by a community of diverse yet like-minded people, all of whom are committed to their own personal development goals through a variety of conscious BDSM, Kink and Leather practices.
Through membership, not only are we able to ensure your physical safety, it also certifies that each person will be met with communal support, maintaining the integrity of the space and maximizing the potential growth for each individual because here, at The Kink Collective, we are family.
So, how do we vet potential members?
As a prerequisite for becoming a member, we require active participation in our free online communication skill-building class, Connection: Simplified, created for supporting you and our community in building deep, long lasting relationships.

What else do I need to know before arriving?
We have a communal snack table, please bring a snack to share and a beverage of your choice. Water, tea, coffee and lollipops are always available!
We have rope available for purchase at $25 a bundle.
While this event is centered around rope, there is no expectation for anyone to engage in it. In fact, we highly welcome and encourage newcomers to socialize, watch and ask questions.
