Lady Haha Comedy Night
Riverpark Ballroom, 8-10pm
$5 for non-attendees. Lady Haha Comedy provides safe spaces for marginalized communities to perform comedy through their open mics and comedy variety shows in AZ. Lady Haha has become more than just access to comedy; it has become a community of like-minded individuals focused on providing affordable, diverse, and inclusive comedy. Priscilla Fernandez and Mo Urban founded Lady Haha Comedy in 2021, and both women have been awarded Tucson's Best Comedian via The Tucson Weekly's annual voting. Enjoying and performing comedy should be fun and safe, so they encourage anyone wanting to try comedy to attend their open mics at Hotel Congress or any of their shows!
Non-attendees can purchase their tickets at LadyHahaComedy.com
Sound Bath
Sabino, 8-9pm
$15 for non-attendees. Join us for an immersive sound and gong bath as we take you on a journey to deeply relax and connect with your inner self. As you enter a dream like state your mind and body will be nurtured. Allowing the frequencies of sound to rejuvenate your nervous system and release built up stress in the body, you will leave feeling clear and rested. We invite you to explore this deeply meditative experience. You are welcome to bring something comfortable to lie on for the experience.

Seeing in the Dark
Cactus 1, 8-10pm
A unique improvisational, co-created experience of sensory exploration, nonverbal consent and communication, and platonic intimacy. We will spend two hours blindfolded together, free to roam, connect, separate, touch or be touched--or keep to ourselves--as we choose. This experience is about trust, being in the moment on our own and with each other. The room will be monitored for consent and participant well-being. This is not a sex party: while consensual, collaborative touch is allowed and supported, all activities must be kept PG or below.
This workshop is limited to 25 participants (SWLF attendees only), first come, first serve. Doors will remain closed throughout. To support the unique experience we are attempting to create, we ask that you arrive on time and be prepared to stay for the duration.
