Let's talk about consent!

This educational workshop is designed to explore the multiple facets of consent. Whether in a sexual context or in everyday life, consent is an essential element of relationships between individuals.

The workshop is divided into two parts. One theoretical to go through all the specifics of consent, the second with practical exercises. Think of consent as a muscle: First, we understand how it works, every fiber that composes it. Then the more we train it, the stronger and easier it becomes to mobilize!

In practice:

  • The workshop is open to everyone regardless of your gender, orientation, ethnicity, social class, physical ability, mental ability, age (legal age required),...
  • Participants can arrive between 7 PM and 8 PM. After 8 PM, no more entries will be allowed. The workshop ends around 11 PM.
  • No exercise is mandatory. You are free to refuse any practice at any time. Your boundaries are a priority.
  • You are free to leave the workshop at any time. A quiet space will be available for you to isolate yourself if needed.
  • Beautiful Things is a 100% sober space. No drugs or alcohol are allowed. Please also arrive at the workshop sober.

  • No act or word of a racist, homophobic, transphobic, fatphobic, ableist, classist, or any other discriminatory nature is tolerated.
