Description
Welcome to VIXEN: a unique Mixer and Member's Only play party for Women, Femmes, and Thems.
⚠️⚠️ Please note that ticket sales close at 7pm on 8/17 (the day of), and there are NO ticket sales at the door. ⚠️⚠️
Embrace your sapphic nature.
Girls, women, femmes and thems just wanna have fun. So let's do that. Paging all women, femmes and non-binary babes for a night of meeting, greeting, ice breaking, bottle spinning, and if you wish to make it so, flirting, kissing and... well, we're not about to tell what you can't do in the privacy of our own decadent playrooms. We're not your Mom and this isn't a school night. This is a unique event that’s never been done before, and should not be missed.
ABCD stands for “anyone but cis dudes” -- which is not to say we don’t love our cis guys, this just isn’t an event for you. Few events are specifically for fems & thems only, so we’re creating that space. This event is specifically for queer babes to connect with other queer babes outside of bars and is open to women, trans folks, non-binary beings, and more. For the safety and comfort of our community, we require memberships for certain events. This also allows us to conduct these specially curated events with your support of our beautiful space. Memberships begin at $20/month and must be approved for at least 48 hours before the event.
What's on the menu:
8pm - 9pm: A sexy, 1-hour workshop that will guide you through the pitfalls of flirting and negotiation techniques for play parties, as well as turning the sensual art of the kiss into a fine science that anyone can be taught.
9pm - ?? Then onto ice breaker games (including spin the bottle) before finally opening our beautiful themed rooms in which the evening can go wherever it is wont to go...

TICKETS
Tickets to our events are always available at https://www.autonomyproject.org/. While buying your ticket weeks ahead of time won’t always be necessary, we never want you to miss out on an event because you didn’t reserve your spot in time. Our events often fill up quickly and we don’t always have tickets available for purchase closer to the event. We always recommend you buy your ticket as soon as you decide you’d like to attend an event to avoid any disappointment.
DRESS CODE
When it comes to attire, anything goes at Wicked Eden, we want you to feel comfortable and in the mood to have an adventure! Wicked Eden is a place where you can wear as much or as little as you desire. We want you to always feel comfortable expressing yourself in whatever ways you desire. We encourage you to go outside your comfort zone with festive, outrageous, or amazing clothing that you never get a chance to wear anywhere else.
VOLUNTEERS
We LOVE volunteers! Join our team of community volunteers, and you will find new friends, a support system and a tight-knit center of empowerment. Once you have obtained membership as above, please check out the volunteering section of The Autonomy Project website.

Your ideas are important to us, and as a volunteer, we want you to feel like you’re part of our community: one that celebrates who you are and supports your journey.
You can access the Volunteer opportunities inside your dashboard! It’s free to make an account!
HIGH POTENTIAL, NO PRESSURES
Our community thrives in a space where countless delightful interactions could happen, but none are obligated to occur. Think of it as “high possibility, low expectations.” Outside of our general requirements of respect, you are under no obligation to interact with anyone in any particular way. This makes our space ideal for new faces and seasoned community members alike.
EVERYONE PARTICIPATES
Our events aren’t the product of one person hosting a party for pay; they’re the result of a community coming together and creating something new. Everyone who attends is expected to co-create: money, time, energy, enthusiasm, work, intention, example, concern and/or awareness. Have ideas, games, art, music to share? Come bring them to life with us!
A FOUNDATION OF TRUST
Our gatherings are magical because of trust. We fiercely protect each member’s privacy, encourage honest risk communication, and take diligent care of our shared environments. It’s our collective respect and integrity that fortify this safe space.
CLEAR AND PRESENT CONSENT
Upholding consent goes beyond preventing harm; it’s about affirming everyone’s freedom to fully and joyfully agree to their interactions. It’s through this affirmation that our spaces thrive with genuine, unreserved participation.
INCLUSION AND DIVERSITY
We’re committed to inclusivity. Our community is a rich tapestry of individuals from diverse racial, ethnic, and social backgrounds, including all gender identities and expressions. We encourage everyone to engage with empathy and curiosity, always asking rather than assuming someone’s identity or preferences.
Our space is and always will be ADA accessible, with multiple spaces for varying sensory needs.
PLEASE NOTE: No refunds will be given on ticket purchases. Wicked Eden is located on the south side of Columbus, approximately 10 minutes from downtown, and is one block away from a COTA bus stop.
