Upcoming events this week.

Indecent event flyer

Indecent at Union Tavern

Fourth Saturday,  - 
A new party from Math3ca and Adam Unknown focusing on the intimacy of the queer dancefloor experience. Every 4th Saturday. Creative attire and fetish wear is STRONGLY recommended. We will be offering a $3 clothes check for you to get into your gear. Essential Rules to Follow: Consent is cuuuuuute. Always ask before touching! Just because you are in the space does not grant you permission. When unsure, always ask! If someone is making you feel uncomfortable, please approach a staff member and we will handle the situation. We have a zero tolerance policy for any type of harassment. Clothing: less is more but please make sure your private parts are covered! Keep it cute, stay hydrated and drink plenty of WATER. Don’t over indulge, don’t be messy. Take care of each other. Photos and Video: NO PHOTOS OR VIDEOS ALLOWED ON THE DANCE-FLOOR! We will have a designated area along the left side of the bar for photos if you wish them to be taken by our staff photographer. S3X: While we encourage sexy attire, please don't have actual s3x on the dance-floor or anywhere else. We want to continue doing more of these parties and for the venue to keep their liq license. :) Tip well and be nice to staff. It takes a village and each member is important in producing this event :)

Daddy O event flyer

Fourth Thursday,  - 
First Thursdays at ManRay, starting November 2nd, bring it on and take it off!! DADDY O underwear party with Resident DJ BRIAN HALLIGAN and Guests $13. 10pm-2am FREE Clothes Check (tips appreciated) Some brief (pun intended) notes about Daddy O, in order to strike a balance between making the event a safe and welcoming space for all, and reducing the risk of any conflict with the relevant licensing boards as we understand current law. Yes, jock straps are ok but as with any underwear, per current law, the front cannot be see through. Public play that crosses into overt sexu@l activity will be discreetly addressed by our security staff, so please be mindful of it. Transmasc people who have not undergone top surgery are required to at least cover their nipples per current Massachusetts law. We are aware of the double standard this imposes, but again this is not a decision that is in our control. Consent is hot, so please be sure you get it when initiating contact and keep it in mind as your encounter progresses, with the understanding that either party has the right to disengage if they are no longer comfortable. This includes the use of photography, anyone in your photo should be a willing participant. If anyone makes you feel uncomfortable, please see any security or staff member for help. Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated. As this is our first queer underwear event at the new ManRay, the interest level is high, so please be patient with us as we work out any potential kinks (again, pun intended) regarding clothes check. Patrons of other underwear and fetish nights know that practice and experience are the best teachers. Constructive feedback or opportunities for clarification from the community are always welcome. Having said that, clothes check is free, but we encourage you to tip our lovely and efficient clothes check staff. We are looking forward to seeing sexy bodies of all types Thursday, as befits the spirit and history of ManRay, and appreciate your cooperation in advance.
