One of my favourite things about putting together The Baths Pleasure Calendar each month is realising how much is happening once you know where to look. That's why I make this. So you don't have to spend hours hunting through Instagram hoping you stumble across something interesting.
One of the worst parts of making this calendar is realising I can’t clone myself and go to everything! 🤣
Get your diaries out. Here’s what’s happening in August…
☕ August 1 | Orgasms for Breakfast | SOMA SNCTRY, Carlton
Coffee, brekkie and a conversation about orgasms with psychologist and sexologist Laura Lee. Expect a warm, welcoming morning with prizes, goodie bags and plenty of myth busting on the “illusive” orgasm. 🎟 Book here.
🖤 August 1 | Hedon House Open House | Naarm
A rare chance to step inside Hedon House for chats, tea and a behind-the-scenes look at one of Melbourne's most intriguing spaces. Expect a low-pressure, friendly and casual browse. 🎟 Registrations essential.
⛓ August 2 | Power Play: Intro to Kink | SOMA SNCTRY, Carlton

🌶️ August 14 | Neurospicy: Intimacy & Neurodivergence | Coffs Harbour

🎓 August 17 | Class is in Session: Sex Ed 2.0 | Online

💛 August 18 | The Sweet Spot | Wesley Anne, Northcote

🎤 August 21 | Cliterally Trivia: After Dark | The Crypt, Ballarat
Hosted by two sexologists, this trivia blends cheeky fun with myth-busting facts about toys, history, and everything in between. The dynamic duo are dialing up the spice with naughtier games and kinkier prizes - only for those not afraid of the dark. 🔥 Assemble your team.
🤍 August 21-23 | The Body Project | Muses Space, Bondi
A powerful exhibition celebrating the stories our bodies carry through raw portraits, personal letters and a weekend of creative workshops. Wander the gallery, join an art class, or simply spend time in a space that invites you to see the female body with a little more compassion. 🎨 Explore the agenda.
✨ August 23 | Temple of Her | Collingwood
A women-only afternoon of embodiment, sensual movement and sisterhood led by Grace Rodaughan. Through gentle somatic practices, ritual and dance, you'll be invited to slow down, reconnect with your body, and explore your sensuality in a safe, non-sexual space. 🌹 Book here.
Whether you make it to one event or five, I hope this calendar helps you discover something you didn't know existed.
Until next time Bathers,
