London Alternative Market

Newsletter - June 2009

Dear subscribers,

It's nearly time for LAM again on Sunday the 7th June at:

The Rise Bar,
49 Lavender Gardens
SW11 1DJ

Don't forget that the London Alternative Market is now opening its doors from Midday with slight changes to the times of our workshops. This month as usual we will be having two workshops which will be hosted by SiMply workshops. The first will be A Bondage Overview presented by Master Cosmic at 2pm followed by So you want to be a DM presented by Volcanic Sparks, SF_Freak and Badg1 at 4pm. The workshops will be held in a curtained off area upstairs with handouts and copies of the slides available to the first 50 people.

As always we will have the LAM entry draw of £25 LAM cash for two lucky visitors so don't forget to fill in your details at the community desk.

We have 3 new stalls for you this month:

Incubus Six, alias Boyd Phillips showing for the first time at LAM his unique artwork; [email protected]
ZxLatex with their own bespoke range of Latex clothing and accessories; [email protected]
Dragon Dreads; would you like dreads without ruining your natural hair? Well give Dragon Dreads synthetic dreadlocks a go. They're really simple to tie into your own hair and easy to care for; [email protected]

The LAM after Market Party is on again at it's usual venue very close to this month's LAM and offers a great chance to chill out socialise and test those new toys.

Tickets are £5 at the LAM from Volcanic Sparks or the community desk.

We would like to bring your attention to Textile artist/designer Alison Wood's (IC: Ally_monster) new interior décor collection I like the word Naughty!

A fun, light hearted approach to BDSM, fetish, sex and in particular role play with a tongue in cheek feel.

The main feature being cheeky, cartoon prints on fabric, wallpaper and furniture – from naughty schoolgirls running around in strap- ons to bunny girls and carrot cocks!

A must see for the bad girl who deserves a spanking..

Resistance Gallery

2:00 PM - 11:00 PM

The London Festival of the Art of Japanese Bondage will be totally unique.

We are keen to promote kinbaku (aka shibari/Japanese rope bondage) as an artistic inspiration, a performance art in its own right and as a means of erotic communication, whilst sharing knowledge about it and its cultural context.
