Code of Conduct & Content Warning
The Tucson Erotica Art Show (TEAS) does not tolerate racism, bullying, body shaming, trans/homophobia, and/or gender/sexual harassment in any form from staff, artists, performers, vendors, or attendees. Anyone perpetrating or engaging in any of these acts will be subject to immediate removal from the premises, without refund, and may be banned from future TEAS events.
If you see, hear, or experience any act, verbal or physical, listed above, please report the incident immediately to security or the nearest staff member.
Tucson Erotica Art Show (TEAS) events are not “play parties” nor an opportunity to seek sexual gratification. TEAS events are meant to be a safe space for ANY PERSON to celebrate and appreciate adult sexual nature through the blend of art and eroticism.
Erotic-themed costumes and props are encouraged, but please no genital nudity or full-frontal nudity (pasties/nipple covering ok) regardless of gender.
By entering a TEAS event, you agree to respect the boundaries of all staff, artists, performers, vendors and attendees. Respecting boundaries means receiving verbal confirmation aka “consent” BEFORE touching, staring, and/or sharing opinions or comments on physical/sexual aspects of another individual, even if you feel you are just being “nice” or “flirting” harmlessly.
For example: Receive clear consent (enthusiastic or affirming “yes”) from an individual before you admire that individual’s costume or prop. Excessive staring from near or afar without the individual’s knowledge or permission is NOT receiving consent, especially if you feel “turned on” while staring.
**Dressing in erotic costume DOES NOT imply desire for sexual attention in any way.**
If you feel you cannot control your actions, are tempted to purposely act without receiving consent, and/or knowingly cross another person’s boundaries, please respectfully remove yourself from the event and seek counsel from a professional.
Safety is our highest priority. If you feel you are being disrespected or are made to feel uncomfortable in any way, please let a staff person know immediately.
Content Warning: By entering a TEAS event, you are consenting to see sexual themed images by artists with their own preferences, fantasies, kinks and fetishes. These images (performances, products, etc.) may or may not reflect your own preferences, fantasies, kinks, and fetishes. If you experience discomfort from an image, performance, or any aspect of the event, we encourage open and respectful dialogue, or respect your decision to not attend TEAS events.
2025 Gallery Orienting & Mobility Tips
Tucson Erotica’s seasonal gallery space is located in a multi-unit commercial building at the southwest corner of S 6th Ave and W 32nd Street in South Tucson. The address is 2210 S 6th Ave. There are two entrances to the gallery – one at the north corner of the building facing W 32nd Street (look for ‘Sergio’s Shuttle’ service across the street) and another accessible via a gravel parking lot on the south side of the building.
To enter the gallery through the south side of the building: navigate over a bumpy brick ramp from the parking lot (ADA slope), pass through a 36.5” entryway to another 36”+ entryway immediately followed by two ramps (the one going into the courtyard is non-ADA slope and the one leaving the courtyard is an ADA slope), and enter into the courtyard. From the courtyard, you will pass into a foyer via a steep (non-ADA; 1:5 slope). You will see two restrooms in front of you. Turn right through a 30”- wide doorway (possible to extend to 60”).
To enter the gallery through the north corner of the building: there is a ramp (ADA slope) on the corner of the sidewalk in front of the gallery. Enter through the doorway facing W 32nd Street (36”) and another interior door (26.5” wide; possible to extend to 53”). There are no floor level changes in the main gallery space nor between the gallery and the restrooms in the anterior foyer. Gallery floors are primarily painted concrete with some areas paved by bricks.
The restroom doors are 35.5” wide, with ample interior space for wheelchair navigation, and they are equipped with grab bars.
We anticipate the most significant accessibility challenges being finding and navigating parking. There will be a few spaces available in the gravel lot on the south side of the building. Otherwise, we recommend folks parking on W 32nd Street. Fortunately, W 32nd Street is a quiet residential street.
