Call for Erotic Artists, Writers & Performers

I have been involved with the Seattle Erotic Art Festival since the first show on many different levels over the years.

For the first two years, I was in the artist category as a model. In 2003 & 2004, I was a model in a total of six accepted pieces of art! In 2005 I began performing at SEAF and have every year since. In 2006, I was given the charge of the docent program which started as basic tours of the facility (SEAF was at the now defunct ConWorks which was a labyrinth of sorts and one needed a map to find the lavatories!) asnd selling the exhibition art.

Last year, I joined the organizing committee and as the Director of Docents, or as my dear friend Ragsdale Madison refers to me, Domina Docentia, to raise the quality of the program to provide fully fledged, museum style docents who gave art tours for the duration of the Festival. This was how the Order of the White Scarf was born. The decision to give the docents something to make them easily identifiable to art buyers was made and Anna, the Festival Director/Producer, came up with white scarves. A simple, classy accoutrement that stands out in a sea of black formal and fetish wear.

Now, for this year, I want very much for there to be more of the same as last year in the way of docents and art tours. Tours will be scheduled less often than 2009. Hourly was unrealistic since at times there was no interest and at other times, there was so much we needed multiple people offering tours. We will probably have 4 tours a day, even on Sunday when we are only open for 4 hours. We will be repeating the "free admission on Sunday" experiment from last year. (Please still bring a few dollars for donation, just like in a museum

If you are interested in volunteering as a Docent for the Seattle Erotic Art Festival, please email me at seafSophia@gmail.com and I will gladly you put you on my list for when I start organizing trainings. (Training begins in March and averages 4-6 hours.)
