DUNGEON X
Jul

DUNGEON X

Dungeon X is back!

A place few have seen and fewer leave unchanged, where punishment and pleasure are twin gods. You’re not sure if you’re here to be interrogated, seduced, punished… or worshiped. The guards behind you close the door with a sound that feels final... and the chains in the corners start to stir.

Different flavours of temptation: a blood-red lounge where you'll be immersed in live music and unique performances where lost souls, prisoners and dungeon masters put on artful acts of control and surrender, creatures in every corner… and much more. You know how to get in… but will you be able to escape?

Enter Dungeon X, if you dare… and enjoy the most intense, sensual, dark but beautiful immersive experience, a show that you’ll never forget…

Someone—or something—sits there, watching… Waiting…

The Afro Deep Experience

Come party with us for purpose! The category is Skin ✨

Join The Afro Deep Team and Supermodel Diandra Forrest as we celebrate International Albinism Awareness Day which seeks to amplify the voices and visibility of persons with albinism in all areas of life.

This year’s theme is Demanding our rights: Protect our skin, Preserve our lives Donations from this event will support SLAPWA.

Sierra Leone Association of Persons with Albinism, is a dynamic Sierra Leonean NGO dedicated to promoting the health, safety, and well-being of people with albinism across the country. In partnership with Medical Assistance, Sierra Leone -UK (MASL), enables the involvement of PVF and Altruist Sunscreen in the work of the Association. Hence SLAPWA provides essential resources free of charge—including high-quality sunscreen, protective clothing, sunglasses, hats, and access to a specialized skin clinic for the treatment and removal of lesions. With skin cancer being the leading cause of death among people with albinism—and increasing UV exposure due to ozone depletion—SLAPWA’s work is not only urgent but life-saving.

Your support helps empower individuals with albinism to live healthier, safer, and more dignified lives.

Queer Pleasure During Unpleasant Times: A Panel Discussion

Queer Pleasure During Unpleasant Times: A Panel Discussion

Queer Pleasure During Unpleasant Times: A Panel Discussion

Join us at Madame X for a conversation around queer pleasure as a form of healing, resistance, and self-preservation. We will discuss how pleasure (of any kind) is an act of autonomy and connection in the face of systems that seek to diminish. We aim to have a discussion around this question: In particularly bleak times, how do we hold onto what brings us pleasure, and why does it matter that we do?

We’ll explore how our panelists cultivate pleasure in their everyday life, and communities and how creating fulfillment doesn’t always have to be profound or complicated, as it may seem.

Panelists:

Sara Elise (she/her) is a Black, queer, neurodivergent author and community cultivator focused on pleasure, healing, and decolonized well-being. Her work explores the intersections of joy, embodiment, and personal growth. Find her on Instagram @saraelise333

Sara Youngblood Gregory (she/they) is an award-winning lesbian journalist and author who writes about power, identity, and culture. Their work has appeared in major outlets like The New York Times and The Guardian, and their poetry collection DEAD BOYS IN SPACE won the 2023 Pamet River Prize. Find her on Instagram @sinister.spinster

Keanu M. Jackson, LCSW (he/him) is a therapist and educator focused on the emotional well-being of queer and trans people of color. He centers decolonizing mental health, intimacy, and building lives rooted in care, agency, and connection.

Yohon Tatum (he/him) is the Community Engagement Coordinator at The LGBT Center in NYC, where he has spent the past five years creating affirming, resource-rich spaces for LGBTQ+ communities. With over two decades of experience in community advocacy, Yohon is a driving force behind initiatives like Visions of Pride at the High Line and the Annual World of Red Ball—a World AIDS Day event honoring and uplifting the Ballroom community. A proud icon in the Ballroom scene and the NYC Father of the Impeccable Haus of Ticsi, Yohon also leads critical sexual health efforts supporting BIPOC and TGNC individuals in accessing PrEP, PEP, and care. His work is rooted in lived experience, relatability, and the belief that queer pleasure is not only joy—but also healing, resistance, and survival.

Tier One Ticket: FREE entrance into the event.

Tier Two Ticket: FREE entrance into event + SIGNED copy of panelist Sara Elise's book, A Recipe For Change = $19

This is a FREE ticketed event. Please sign up to attend, as there is a maximum capacity the venue can hold.
