Huis Willet-Holthuysen (2026)

As part of World Pride Amsterdam, the Pleasure Society is curating a one-night programme at the Amsterdam Museum's Huis Willet-Holthuysen. This event is a celebration of queer pleasure as visibility, care and activism, exploring and reimagining Amsterdam's queer histories in relation to contemporary experiences through workshops, performances, sound and conversations.

Wish Me Well (2026)

We recently participated in Wish Me Well, a sculpture created by Dutch artist Lara Schnitger. She invited ten Amsterdam-based feminist organisations to create flags and slogans which are incorporated into her 7-meter installation at the NDSM wharf. The work is inspired by women's monuments, street protests, and a  wishing well in Los Angeles' Chinatown. It serves as a symbolic meeting place for feminist groups and the public, and invites reflection, participation, and collective action.

Schaamteloos (2024)

In 2024, the Pleasure Society launched the Schaamteloos campaign in collaboration with The Oh Collective, The Social Code and The Vulva Gallery to tackle something most people don’t even think twice about: the words we use for our own bodies. Why are we still calling them schaamlippen aka “shame lips”? Inspired by the legacy of Ellen Laan, this campaign is about ditching shame and rewriting the narrative by pushing for "vulvalippen" — a term that’s accurate, confident, and proudly unapologetic.
