About the event
The Rose is expanding it's hours today to offer a very special lecture from the honored guest educator Leather Redux. Join us tonight before the dungeon hours for:
Leather - It's Not What You Wear, It's Who You Are!
Have you ever wondered what the leather lifestyle is about? Where did it come from? What does it "mean" to be leather? This class brings some light into origins, history and what it means today. For many it is a "calling" and yes, it is hot, dirty leather sex too. From the beginning with the gay sexual rebels to all the gender queer fuckery today, leather is accessible to those who connect with it.

In February 2023, Master Leather, along with raea and caceyStahr, are the co-directions of the rebooted MAsT chapter for Chicago. Master Lola Smiles once gave her the moniker of the Mayor of Fist City - - a nick name that has stuck and if the city existed, a city where she rules.
