Come be part of our polycule! The Kitchen Table - a pun on the Kitchen Table Polyamory style - is our first regular event. Each month we will meet up in this informal, invite only affair. You'll have the chance to meet and chat with our longlist of hosts and partners, get a first look at new collaborations, and talk about your experiences with polyamory, non-monogamy and the literature. 

This event is invite only, and is designed primarily for our amazing patron community. You can join the next event by signing up to become a supporter on patreon now.

White Supremacy in [Polyamory in] 

​A global, live panel discussion
 19th June 2021
TBC
Ticketed Live Event
Sliding Scale Prices (see below for details)

White Supremacy is everywhere - polyamorous people and communities are not immune. Academic research excludes and erases the non-monogamous experiences of Black, Indigenous and People of Colour (BIPOC), play parties privilege and protect white experiences at the expense of BIPOC bodies, and media representations of consensual non-monogamy often centre exclusively white relationships. The work deconstructing systemic structures of white supremacy must begin with critical discussion about the ways these structures shape our relationships with others and with ourselves.

Alcohol [in Polyamory] ​

​A global, live panel discussion
 TBC
TBC
Ticketed Live Event
Sliding Scale Prices (see below for details)

Alcohol has a serious and unexamined impact on the polyamorous community.  The queer community in general has documented a disproportionate burden of alcohol addiction and abuse in their communities,   due to self-medicating, ingrained use of alcohol for socializing events, and a lack of access to support structures for recovery. But what about in polyamory? Given the overlap and similar reported stresses (social stigma and drink-heavy socialization) in our community with the LGBTQ+ communities, , and the lack of tailored recovery approaches, it's time to talk about alcohol.

Abuse [in Polyamory] 

​A global, live panel discussion
 17th April 2021
10am LA | 12 Noon CHI | 1pm NYC | 6pm LON| 7pm PAR
Ticketed Live Event

See Pre-Event Discussion with openrelating.love

Abuse can happen in any relationship, whether you have one partner, two partners, or even more. A polyamorous or non-monogamous relationship is not any more or less likely to be abusive than a monogamous one. Even though poly relationships are not inherently abusive, having multiple partners can create unique situations that abusive people may exploit. 
Poly Pages is facilitating a global live event, featuring three polyamorous, seasoned sex and relationship coaches:  Alicia Bunyan-Sampson, Eve Rickert and Sydney Raechin.  
This global event promises to outline what Abuse can look like in polyamory, how we can talk about it, and ways that we can respond to abuse in our relationships and in our communities.

De-coupling is the transition from partnership to other. It can look like a break-up, a divorce, being ghosted, or a conscious amicable dissolution. In polyamory, decoupling offers us many possibilities as well as many challenges. 
Poly Pages is facilitating a global live event, featuring three polyamorous, seasoned sex and relationship coaches:  Andy Adams, Evita Sawyers and Sydney Raechin.  
This global event promises to outline the common reasons for a polyamorous dyad to de-couple, the niche issues faced in polyamorous break-ups, as well as skills and scripts designed to help you and those you love de-couple in healthy, productive and supported ways.

Sliding Scale Payment: What does it mean and how do we use it?  

As part of Poly Page's anti-racist agenda, we are delivering a sliding scale payment scheme to all ticketed events! 

Sliding scale is a form of mutual aid that recognizes that money is an access barrier, which disproportionately impacts black, indigenous and people of color (BIPOC), as well as persons with disabilities, and queer/gender-non-conforming folx. When we offer sliding scale, Poly Pages is acknowledging the various forms of systemic oppression result in economic disparity and seek to mitigate a financial barrier to entry that members of our community may experience. Check out more about Sliding Scale here.

Different models to Implement: 

• A "pay what you can" approach - this approach is when an individual pays what they feel they can for the service/item/resource on offer. The payment is entirely in the hands of the individual who is purchasing the product.  

• A multi-tier system - in this system, much like Patreon, offers several tiers for people to choose between them. The patron can then custom their 'basket' of goods and or services to suit their expenditure. 

• A "pay-it forward" scheme - in this system a minimum price for the service/event/resource is established, but the paying customer can choose to pay less, or to pay more. Those that choose to pay less or more are 'matched' on the back-end of the scheme to allow those that can to pay for someone who cannot 

• A reduced price option - in this system a full price is decided, allowing for minimum expense and profit by the seller, but a reduced price (or several reduced prices) are offered. This allows those who cannot afford the full price to still access the same service/event/resource at a price that is manageable for them.  

• Targeted free access - this payment system allows for a group to be targeted with free access to an otherwise 'for-pay' event. This may be through setting up a code for 100% off the price of admission or cost of the resource. This is a good way to approach racial repatriations for example. 

Check the individual events for details on which model is being used.
