Fetish Fantasy, A Night of Kinky Revelry
Recently! Winter Freak Show at Oubliette
Last quarter, FCC announced another major event collaboration with our Affiliates! And in February, Oubliette hosted FCC’s first ever Fetish Fantasy quarterly fundraising event to raise money for this year’s MELD Femdom Convention. And we all got freaky with the Foxes at Oubliette’s Freak Show.
We had an amazing turn-out from the community of members who came to participate in a freaky night of kinky revelry. The Foxes were mesmerizing and entertaining, hosting a show that included kinky crossover play with their playthings. It was HOT and raised a lot of linden! You had to pay-to-play and we certainly played (see receipts) !!
Through the generosity of our community, we made a significant contribution towards The MELD 2024. FCC is deeply grateful to our affiliate hosts, Oubliette, for helping make this event happen!
FCC is not-for-profit. Staff and contributors are volunteers. All donations are used to cover the continuation of annual events and investment in the future of the Femdom lifestyle in SL. Read more about FCC's policies here.

A Special Note to Our FCC Affiliated Venues
This is your time to shine. Please consider if & how you would like to have your venue represented at The MELD. There will be opportunities to run events, provide staff, as well as advertise your venue--all of which we will provide more information about, or simply contact an FCC Admin or Ambassador. If you own a venue, we encourage you to assign a delegate to attend Planning Sessions to guide the implementation of your venue's event at the MELD.
Get Involved, Plan the MELD
MELD Planning Season is open and in full swing. In March, Planning Committees began meeting to help create the ultimate annual femdom convention experience. Currently Committees are selecting a theme for the 2024 event, brainstorming educational topics with Femdom facilitators, and collaborating together on the 4-day event calendar. In the coming weeks, committees will be helping plan an event hunt, fashion shows, art exhibits and more.
There’s still time to join a committee and get involved. Bring your experience and skills to our collaborative table and let’s create a weekend to remember celebrating Women and the Femdom lifestyle. Planning Committee applications close May 31st, 2024.
