Pillow Talk: The Poetry of Pleasure
August 17 @ 7:00 pm – 10:00 pm
In celebration of Women’s Month, Third House has joined forces with performance poet, sex educator and founder of Pleasure is for People Amir Methvin, all the way from NYC, to bring you Pillow Talk: The Poetry of Pleasure. An open-mic poetry event centred around pleasure, love in all its passionate and platonic forms, sexual education and healing through poetic expression.
The event will welcome open-mic poets to the stage, incorporate elements of sexual education & poetry from Amir herself, and raise funds for the CORA Project: an NGO whose objective is to fight period poetry in South Africa. It is also a pad drive, so please bring sanitary donations!
This is a collaboration in two parts:
A guided writing and pleasure education workshop (and wonderful way to prepare for the open-mic) hosted by Amir will take place on Saturday the 9th of August from 4-6:30pm at Artiste. Entry is R150. You can find more details for this event at @pleasureisforpeople
The open-mic and fundraiser will take place on Sunday the 17th of August at Selective Live, from 7:30PM. Entry for this event is R100.
See you all soon! X
