About this Event
Wine, tarot, & sensuality are deeply beguiling practices that invite us to engage our senses & open up to connection. Yet so often they are subjected to societal suppression or relegated to a taboo “other.” Laid Bare 002 will explore their intersection, calling on tarot archetypes, both maligned & revered, to illuminate the ways in which indulging can be a reclamation of power & intuition.
Hosted by Emily King, somatic sexologist, & her guest Siobhan Duncan The Wine Witch, a small group of women will gather around the table to share food, wine, & conversation in a space designed for openness, curiosity, & connection. Guests are invited to wear lingerie, not as performance or spectacle, but as a personal expression of physical vulnerability, with an invitation to dress inspired by your astrological star sign. Together, we'll explore how the way we reveal ourselves externally can shape the way we connect emotionally.
Through a shared meal, wine tasting guided by tarot & inspired conversation, Laid Bare invites us to question the stories we carry about our bodies, confidence, intimacy, & authenticity. There is no pressure to share beyond what feels comfortable; the evening is built on mutual respect, consent, & confidentiality.
Tickets include all food & drink, & a goodie bag.
