Description
Sunday September 20th – Fall Harvest Munch – 1pm-5pm, by donation
To register for the event, message Ikeren-Fox for interac-etransfer details. All SPCfA events require paying in advance. Registration for this event is required by Saturday September 19th at 10:00am.
The SPCfA is hosting an event we've dreamed of for a long, long time – the Fall Harvest Munch.
On Saturday, September 19th we'll be hitting farmers markets around Victoria to see what local goodies we can find, and then spending the evening and following morning cooking them up to several delights to tantalize and entertain. It is extremely likely, based on the time of year and things typically offered at farmers markets, some of these dishes will be garden salads and charcuterie trays, but there are no promises. We'll also be seeking local drinks as well, of both the alcohol and non-alcohol variety. There is also a good chance some produce comes from our own garden!
If any local kinksters have excess of garden produce or fruit tree offerings, we're happy to take you up on contributions as well!
The amount of food served will be an attempt at light lunch / afternoon snack. There is no guarantee that food will meet every persons dietary restriction or preference. If you're interested in attending and have a dietary restriction or preference you'd like us to meet, feel free to message in advance.
This is an event that will work best with firm RSVP's by Friday, September 18th so we have an approximate idea of how much food to buy. Message Ikeren-Fox to confirm your spot!
Please donate approximately in the range of $5-$25 per person, +$5 per person per alcoholic drink. As always, we want people to attend, and we won't be keeping track of donations in any way shape or form, so if cost is a barrier, please just attend. We are absolutely prepared to lose money on this event, and are absolutely okay with that.
So Sunday, September 20th, come join us from 1pm-5pm for an afternoon of socializing, snacking, and camraderie. If it's nice, this event will be primarily outside and upstairs, and if it's less nice this event will be primarily in the basement play space.
Space Notes
The SPCfA is a basement dungeon space with low ceiling height (6ft4") and a drop beam at 5ft6". There are 10 lights on dimmers. There are 20 hard points. Classes are sometimes cozy, depending on attendance numbers. There is a small, awkward washroom, or a steep, awkward flight of stairs with bad ceiling clearance to a main floor washroom. There are two air filtration units which produce full air change in the unit within about 15 minutes. Seating is mostly on the floor, though we can get chairs upon request.
Accessibility is a complex subject, with conflicting and changing accessibility needs. If you ever have an accessibility need of any sort and wish to come to our space, please let us know and we'll do our best to accomodate.
You can see our Covid-19 policy here and our Consent Policy here.
Territory acknowledgement
This class takes place on the traditional territory of the Lekwungen peoples. We acknowledge and thank the Lekwungen people, also known as the Songhees and Xʷsepsəm (Esquimalt) First Nations for their lengthy stewardship of these lands, on which we now learn. This is a modification of the territory acknowledgement from the Indigenous Perspectives Society, which has lots of great material, including training on first nations perspectives. See https://ipsociety.ca/about/territorial-
acknowledgement/ for more.
The SPCfA attendance guidelines;
Most of our events are at home studio. We are remarkably liberal about allowing guests in our home, but we do have some requirements.
To attend events at the SPCfA, you need to have some connection to the community. That means you've attended an event, added some friends on Fetlife, and those people can confirm they met you at an event and that you're a real person.
If that doesn't work for you, we do have limited time and energy available for one on one meet ups in public places. [Our McRaes munch is also open to all][https://fetlife.com/events/2026/09/14/spcfa-munch-at-mcrae-s-bistro-tc7jrh], so if you want to meet us and come to our events, that would be a great place to do so.
We'll consider video calls in select special circumstances, usually existing couples interested in attending rope classes together.
