About

Delve into your identity as we write about our experiences with sex and sexuality. Kay Kassirer will lead us through writing exercises to help us better understand ourselves and others. Come prepared to hear some personal stories, and share your own if you’d like. All skill levels welcome. Just bring a pen/paper and your lovely selves.

Kay Kassirer (they/them) is a poet, activist, youth advocate, community organizer, and sex worker. They are author of the chapbooks Confessions of a Queer and Unbandage the Wounds, as well as the curator and editor A Whore’s Manifesto: An Anthology of Art and Writing by Sex Workers.

Organizer
