FAQ’s
-
Yes! Buying a ticket online helps us figure out how to set up the room and streamlines the process, but we don’t want to discourage people from coming. Pay when you get here with Venmo, cash, PayPal or credit card.
-
Absolutely. Our new space has very easy access, arrive, depart, and take breaks as you please. The door will be unlocked, just let yourself in. The moderator will meet you at the door and help you find a seat.
-
We send out a reminder, usually on Sunday and will put the model and link to their page if available. Although we try really hard to have this information available, it is not always. On occasion the advertised model needs to cancel and we’ll have a replacement. We also try to put the model name on the ticket, our Instagram, and our blog, but usually need more notice than we are typically given.
-
No photography is allowed. Phones may only be out when the model is clothed.
