About this Event
Falling on Nov. 23rd, the next naked. is inspired by the sacred, by the sensual, by the sacral chakra—the universal seat of creativity. The sacral chakra bids us to integrate with our shadows and claim our pleasure, sensuality and creativity. It asks us to strip ourselves of the guilt, the shame, and the fear to make space for what feels good.
Having a sustained practice with enjoyment and pleasure is a revolutionary act rooted in self-nurturance and self-honoring. It defies oppression and defines the self in the exploration of what makes it say, "yesss…" so with your consent, please join us as we explore the bounds of our sensuality, and map our pleasure to transform and grow as a collective.
On this special evening, we invite you to wear whatever makes you feel most seen, most felt, and most heard.
We'll also be having an ongoing collection of donation items to send to those impacted by Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica, Cuba, Haiti, the Bahamas, and Turks and Caicos:
- non-perishable foods
- flashlights
- batteries
- toiletries
- water
- first aid kits
what is ?
naked. is not your typical open mic. it’s "the open mic without a mic"—a curated space of fluidity that celebrates vulnerability, creativity, and community discourse. there’s no mic or stage, and ALL art forms are welcome. it’s a space that reclaims art as a spiritual and healing practice. it’s a place for community to build, practice intimacy, and step outside their comfort zones.
originally created in New Orleans in February 2018, those who attend are invited to be vulnerable, or naked—free from the armor and masks often worn to navigate the world, in a space that asks:
if you could be naked—without judgment—how would you show up, what would you say, what would you share?
