The Seattle Erotic art Festival is an experience unlike any other festival or gallery you have likely ever attended.  Over the course of three days, a curated selection of some of the finest erotic art the world has to offer will grace the floors of the Seattle Center's Exhibition Hall, awaiting your perusal and enjoyment.

During regular festival hours, you are invited to view the art and daily entertainments, from poetry readings to dance to acrobatic displays.  There is also the Festival Store, where you can often find prints by the artists featured in the festival as well as other unique items and annual Seattle Erotic Art Festival merchandise. In the evenings, the vibe changes from a gallery to sexy art party. The Late Night Festival is a sexy, fun time with performers, DJs, bartenders at the ready, and a fantastically energetic crowd.

We are excited to present the second annual Pan Eros Film Festival. The short film program will be shown over 2 days and 5 showings at the SIFF Film Center in conjunction with SEAF. The silent film program will be shown continuously within SEAF.  Short Film Program tickets can be purchased separately or in conjunction with SEAF attendace starting April 1st.

The Festival art will engage you, titillate you, and make you think.  Not every piece is to everyone’s tastes, but there is something there that will speak to you – and what doesn’t can lead to some fascinating conversations. Whether you are joining us for the first time and new to the sex positive community, or have attended these events for years – this festival is for you.

More information about artists and schedules will be available at SeattleErotic.org and will updated regularly.
