SPICY BING-OH! is coming to Paris!

bingo-style game on the spicy side: learning about adult health while winning body-safe prizes!

The spiciest bingo game you've ever played, and it's hosted by a community health educator. With lattes and laughs (and beer, wine, and house crafted cocktails), we discuss wellness, pleasure, intimacy, and basically get the adult health education you wish you got in school. It's never too late! And now it's incentivized with body-safe toys as prizes. There's always something to take away just for coming out, from delicious new samples to try, to the education that will empower you for a life time.

These spicy events histortically sell out in Paris, so get your Admission now. Bing-Oh playing cards are sold for cash at the door, on the night of the event starting at 7:30pm. Game officially starts at 8. The best seats are at the front of the class.

$5 advance admission; or $10 cash at the Door if they're still left (check eventbrite)

BINGO Playing cards are sold for cash only at the door, only on the night of each event.

$15 ea OR

2 for $20, 3 for $35, 4 for $40

Game starts at 8 and there's "no such thing as late" because you can pop in, pick up a card and start winning at any time.

Making Woman pushes boundaries; in first grade the boy was in trouble for arguing with teachers about inequitable treatment of students and [REDACTED] years later she/it has not changed at all in the slightest bit. Basically, Stacy Taylor is making a woman one injection at a time. Expect to hear everything from soft, sweet, silly, and jazz inspired songs to raw and authentic acoustic-punk-metal. This self-described-over-hyphenated-solo-punk will deliver a purr-formance on an acoustic guitar with a beautiful kick drum that will bring you from calmly exploring your inner goddess to having you screaming "that's what happens when you politely ask your oppressors for more!" It's giving divine feminine rage, but she has had the misfortune to learn too damn many pretty chords and scales along the way to just play G and A major for every song. Stacy's mom is super proud of Making Woman too, fyi!
