Get ready for a weekend of erotic art, fashion, and culture as the Tom of Finland Foundation (ToFF) presents the highly-anticipated Art & Culture Festival 2023 in Berlin, London, and Los Angeles. This year’s festival promises to be the sexiest and most socially-friendly event of the year, with a showcase of talented artists, vendors, performers, and DJs from around the globe.

ToFF CXO S.R. Sharp says, “Berlin is the center of the Queer world – what better place to have a celebration of all things beautifully erotic in the gayest of ways.” Festival lead and ToFF Creative Director Richard Villani adds, “My goal with the Art & Culture Festival is to pave the way for the next generation of Queer and erotic artists, while expanding to more cities and communities around the world.

The festival kicks off in Berlin on May 12th, and will run until May 14th at the historic women’s prison, Knast. Additional events will also take place throughout the city. Visitors will be treated to a wide range of sensual artwork from established and emerging artists, including Henning von Berg, Fausto, Rinaldo Hopf, and Tom of Finland Emerging Artist Competition-winner Silver & Gelatin. Fashion lovers can look forward to unique designs from Effenberger Couture, inspired by Berlin’s infamous Queer party culture. Plus, galleries curated by The Queer Archive and Berlin’s own The Ballery will also be on display.

Don’t miss the kick-off party at Prinzknecht Men’s Bar on May 11th at 7 pm. ToFF President & Cofounder Durk Dehner says, “What we are bringing to you is an opportunity for all of us to get out and support our artists and our culture with this Festival.” So mark your calendars and get ready for a weekend of unapologetic sensuality and celebration of queer and erotic art.
