Doors open: 18:30, Program starts 19:00 and ends 21:00
Location: San Serriffe, Sint Annenstraat 30, Amsterdam

San Serriffe does have a wheelchair ramp, yet the toilet is not accessible with a wheelchair. Please contact us for support.
Why are you orgasing this event?
June 2nd commemorates the occupation of the Eglise Saint-Nizier in Lyon in 1976, by more than 100 sex workers. And today, we are still fighting for better rights, decriminalisation and destigmatisation for our community of sex workers, so it still feels vital for us to gather.
This year will be the fourth edition of our Pleasure Providers Pillow Talks, and are inviting our beautiful community and everyone who wants to support us to come together.
What do you hope sex workers will take home from this experience?
We gather together on this important day to listen; we believe that we should be able to whisper, and still be heard.
