This weekend, Sanctuary Studios LAX will be selecting Mr. and Ms. Sanctuary Leather to represent them at leather events across the country and support the leather community. Friday night, December 7th at 6:00 P.M., is the meet and greet at the Eagle LA bar located at 4219 Santa Monica Blvd. Cost is $6 at the door.
Contestants introduce themselves and sell raffle tickets to raise money for the travel fund. Saturday is the competition at Sanctuary Studios LAX, located at at 10914 S. La Cienega Blvd. Pre-Contest Cigar and Cocktail hour starts at 8:00 P.M. with the Mr. and Ms. Sanctuary Leather Contest beginning at 9:00 P.M. The post-contest celebration and play party will begin at roughly at Midnight. Admission is $10 at the door. Contestants have to be interviewed by the event judges, appear in a “Bar Wear” competition, complete a question and answer portion for the audience, do an onstage “Fantasy Performance”, and a “Formal Wear” competition. Mr. and Ms. Sanctuary Leather will be selected by a panel of judges from Sanctuary’s leather family.
Once selected, these titleholders are tasked with representing leather values, including education and outreach projects in the surrounding communities. Mr. and Ms. Sanctuary Leather will represent Sanctuary at local, national, and international leather events, wearing the official sash or back patch and medallion. They will also attend Sanctuary fundraisers, DomCon Los Angeles, and may be called upon to be the face of Sanctuary LAX, and the BDSM community in the press. The winners will go on to compete with other representatives from leather bars, and groups to represent the leather community on a local, state and international level.
These competitions call attention to causes in the gay, lesbian, trans and BDSM communities. Competitors should be active in leather and BDSM. They should be a positive voice in the community, supportive of their peers, and supportive of those in need. “Leather contests are a treasured tradition that ensures that the leather and BDSM lifestyles are well-represented, so please join us on this important night!” said Mistress Cyan, founder and CEO of Sanctuary Studios LAX.
