Gay Wellness presents Feels Good Fest, a weekend of self-care and betterment for the Queer community. Spread over two days, Feels Good Fest offers a variety of services, activities and workshops designed to help folks live, look, and feel their best. Explore a variety of offerings throughout the day.

The characters in Tom of Finland’s drawings – lumberjacks, bikers, soldiers and policemen – exude vitality, joy and pride. Their leather gear and uniforms are portrayed with the same exquisite attention to detail as their muscular physiques. In his drawings, men connect with one another through erotic-laden gazes, gestures and postures.

Colorful brushstrokes evoke psychedelic or spiritual landscapes. The artist unites the aesthetics of Santería, Catholicism, and drag in an attempt at transcendence, viewing painting as a performance that can take both maker and audience beyond the limits of the body, religion, the past, and “reality”.

The Awakening is a project by Barcelona-based artist Antoni Hervás, curated by Clara López Menéndez. The exhibition will be accompanied by a three month long residency at Tom of Finland Foundation (April-June).

This year, the Festival touches down in Berlin, London, and Los Angeles. This year will see prideART Berlin at The Knast host the Festival for its first German iteration. Housed in a historic women’s prison, this is the first time prideART Berlin will participate in the Festival.

Based on Mogutin’s new book published by MenOnPaperArt (London), the show features a series of works on fabric, as well as photo collages from Polaroid Rage, another ongoing project documenting Queer communities around the world.

“Feels Good Fest is an opportunity to provide our Members and stakeholders with the self-care and wellness we all need, while expanding our reach to a broader audience,” ToFF Creative Director Richard Villani tells Out Traveler.

If it feels good, then why not let Tom of Finland do it to you?

Tom of Finland is taking centre stage at Helsinki’s Kiasma museum, which will delve deep into both the groundbreaking artist’s taboo-busting work and striking life story in its major retrospective, Bold Journey. Highlights also include a virtual tour of TOM House, where he spent his winters in the final decade of his life.

Tom of Finland Foundation is spending the weekend at the spa, and so can you! Gay Wellness has just released the schedule for this weekend’s Feels Good Fest. Spread over two days, come get your zen on at TOM House with identical offerings both days.

I mean, a fashion brand that prides itself on being sex-positive and a homoerotic art icon that both have a reputation for NSFW imagery — they’re a perfect fit for each other.

This exhibition, opening on 28th April in the Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma in Helsinki highlights Tom of Finland’s artistic mastery, establishing him as a major figure in 20th-century contemporary art and visual culture.

Florian Hetz showed a series of photographs entitled I’m Sorry I Hurt You; a zine of the same name was on offer for purchase. Selections from California Sober, a work-in-progress film by Konstantinos Menelaou, were shown around Pleasure Park upon multiple screens
