Did you know your fingers are connected to your brain? Do you want to slither those brain fingies inside galaxy slime until your brain hearts are content? Well you are in the right building, unless you are here for the nipple waxing class, that’s down the way there.
In this class we’ll create a sensory object you can keep with you and carry it everywhere you go, gift it to someone, or just have it laying on your bench as a talking piece. It might go horribly wrong, it might be a silky sensuous fingerpiece…Either way, let’s have some fun and engage each other to re-connect post lockdown and form some new memories while creating something unpredictable, slimy and fun.

This event will be half social fun times with a bunch of like minded queer people and half super cute workshop times!

What will we cover?

This is a hands on workshop where you’ll go home with your own galaxy slime

Together we will explore:

  • How to make slime
  • How to colour it or add trinkets
  • A little bit about why slime is so cool

All materials will be supplied. 

What should I bring?

  • Some sparkly queer energy
