A Birthday Party for Gary and Norm: Sunday May 14, 6pm+ at Muther's
Not a TNT!MEN events. Come celebrate the birthdays (and birthday suits!) of Gary and Norm, two of our very hard-working board members. This is our first party at Muther's in a few months, and we're looking forward to making this extra special. All nudists are invited to attend this most gay intimate occasion. Snack food, like potato chips and pretzels, will be provided and some non-alcoholic beverages will be made available, like pop and coffee. Alcoholic beverages can be purchased at the bar, but you'll have to put clothes on for that. A secure clothes check will be provided. Combined admission and coat-check is $7. Tickets must be obtained in advance from the Toolbox, or at a previous TNT!MEN event. They will also be available on the day from an alternate location; write for details.

 See the work of Carlos Quiroz at the O'Connor Gallery with TNT!MEN on May 25th.
"Penis Study" -- A Naked Reception at the O'Connor Gallery: Thursday 25 May, 8-10pm
Carlos Quiroz focuses his lens on the penis as never seen before, sometimes crossing the line between the erotic and the pornographic. In this, one of his most famous images, a man holds what appears to be a wrapped cloth or flower but is actually a foreskin. Trained as an architect in Peru, Quiroz now lives in Montreal and Samos, Greece. He has won many awards, most notably the Best Livre d'Artist by the National Library of Quebec. His work is in private collections around the world, as well as the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography, The Library of Congress (USA), El Museo del Gayo (Madrid), among others. (Part of Contact 2000, the Fourth Annual Toronto Photography Festival.)
 
Free for all patrons of the arts, but you must be naked! Once again Dennis O'Connor of the O'Connor Gallery is very kindly hosting an event for us. Please come out and join us and let him know how much we appreciate his support. All men really are welcome; you don't have to be a member, and admission is free.
97 Maitland Street, just east of Church. +1-416-921-7149
 
East Coast Gathering of Gay Men: 26 to 30 May
This isn't a TNT!MEN event, but I thought you might be interested. See their website for details.
 
Naked T-Dance at The Barn: CANCELLED
Gay nudists have been having bar events in Toronto since 1995, and TNT!MEN has been having monthly nude dances at the Barn since April 1997. Unfortunately, a few cops in Toronto have decided they don't like them and are doing their best to shut them down by harrassing the Barn's owner with nuisance liquor-license infractions. Until we have settled this manner, I'm afraid that the will not be hosting any more nude events in the near future. However, the board of TNT!MEN is promising to have a fabulous pre-Pride dance somewhere in Toronto on Saturday, June 24th. Stay tuned for more details.
 

If you are interested in coming to a private event, you must make reservations in advance, either by calling the Info Hotline at (416) 925-XTRA ext 3010 and leaving a message, or by sending e-mail to . Be sure to include your phone number so that we can pass your request on to the host.
