The BDSM Drawing Club 6 PM to 7:45 PM
Have you ever wanted to take a life-drawing class? Think about it…Naked people staying perfectly still while you capture them could be kinky. Have you ever seen a scene and been inspired to draw? Please join Mari Vice and friends for an afternoon of drawing naked models in BDSM poses! This is the second (hopefully of many) gathering of the BDSM Drawing Club.
YOU MUST bring your own ART SUPPLIES. Dry drawing utensils and watercolor paint permitted. No photography or oil based media. Suggested: A drawing board/clipboard, a sketchbook, an eraser, and assorted sharpened pencils/or chalks.
Basic figure drawing instruction will be from 6-6:30 for those interested. Male and female models of varying body types will be participating. They will hold a variety of 1, 5, 10, and 25 minute poses. Come with an open mind and be ready to draw! Remember: Art is a transaction between people. You may frame your drawings OR you may hide them away for private viewing. The quality of the art is subjective. But the quality of the experience is priceless!
If you are interesting in volunteering to model or in organizing future The BDSM Drawing Club gatherings, e-mail marivice@ameritech.net to introduce yourself and express your level of interest.

I AM A SADIST 6 PM to 7:45 PM
Yes, I am a Sadist – Becoming Comfortable with Your Sadism
Galleria Domain 2 is pleased to host Min of Sin for his insightful and
creative class on how we in the kink world can become comfortable with
the idea of being aroused by inflicting pain on others. For some
dominants, admitting to having a sadistic streak can be a difficult
issue to overcome, as the desire to hurt others is not something that
is acceptable and tolerated within main stream society. This class
will delve in to not only where we derive our sadism from, but how we
can embrace this characteristic within ourselves, use it to our
benefit, and reconcile it against our vanilla lives. Min will use
humor, open discussion with the audience, and creative demonstrations
to show us how to love and exploit our inner sadist.
BIO
Min, short for Minister of Sinister (a name given to him by a
"vanilla" friend), was born, raised and educated in Chicago.
Min was ordained through the A.M.E. Church in 1995, and pastored a
church in the south suburbs of Chicago for two years. He has been a
member of various civic, fraternal and religious organizations for
well over 20 years. He has lectured at colleges and universities
across the country on issues ranging from spirituality to the
condition of black greek organizations. He has also served as a
consultant to many non-profit organizations on improving their
membership and their public profile, along with being a successful
grant writer.
He has been involved in the BDSM lifestyle since 2000 and has been
involved in polyamorous relationships for about the same amount of
time. Min has undergone formal Dominant training where he was
instructed in "Old Guard" techniques.
As a Dominant, Min styles himself as a Daddy Dom and a "humorous
sadist," with his emphasis on exploring mental Domination and
submission, and basically, torturing pony in the most humorous ways
possible.
In 2005, Min founded "A Love Movement," an internet ministry which
produces bi-weekly podcasts on a variety of subjects which relate to
issues associated with spirituality, and often has discussed issues of
homosexual rights, polyamory and general spiritual health.
Min is an Executive Board member of the Leather Rose Association (LRA)
of Chicago.
