The Women's Building, </span></font><font size="3">3543 18th Street at Valencia, SF</font><br>
<font size="3"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br>
For our July program, it's all about YOU...novices...those new to BDSM and the BDSM community. This is your night! <br>
</span></font>
<h3 style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="3"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Come prepared for lots of information and lots of fun! <br>
</span></font></h3>
<h3 style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="3"><span style="font-weight: normal;">To
begin with, you will hear from a panel of experienced members of the
leather community:Tops, Mistresses, Masters, Dommes/Doms, submissives,
bottoms, bois/boys, and girls. The second part of the evening is
hands-on experience! We will set up stations with lots of skilled
leather folks to show you the ropes...or floggers...or paddles. You
might also try restraints, canes, clips and clamps, blindfolds, hoods,
and perhaps some piercing needles. And, of course, you can just watch
the action. <br>

<h3 style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="3">Directions to The Women's Building</font></h3>
<div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
<p>
<font size="3"><span>Public Transit</span><br>
BART: The Women's Building is close to 16th street BART. Special note:
one side-effect of gentrification in the Mission is that there are a
lot of people on the streets between The Women's Building and the BART
station - all nice safe people going to one of the many new local
restaurants. You'll probably feel safe walking the few blocks from 16th
Mission BART and The Women's Building. </font></p>
<p>
<font size="3"><span>Muni</span><br>
The 22 Fillmore runs down 16th Street. Get off at 16th & Valencia and walk two blocks to The Women's Building.<br>
The 14 Mission runs along Mission Street. Get off at 17th or 18th and walk 1-1/2 blocks to TWB.
</font></p>
<p>
<font size="3"><span>Driving Directions</span><br>
Driving from Marin County - <br>
Take the Golden Gate Bridge (101 South) to Lombard Street.<br>
Turn right on Gough (if you get to Van Ness, you went 2 blocks too far).<br>
Take Gough all the way to Market Street. Stay in the center lane.<br>
Turn right onto Market, then a quick left onto Valencia.<br>
Go to 18th Street and look for parking, or continue to 21st for the parking garage.
(For fewer hills but more stop lights: from Lombard Street, turn right
onto Van Ness instead of Gough, and follow the directions above.)
</font></p>
<p>
<font size="3"><span>Parking Garage</span><br>
Street parking is difficult in this neighborhood. There is an
inexpensive locked parking garage available on 21st St. between
Valencia and Mission and 16th and on Hoff St between Mission and
Valencia. </font></p>
