Love Happens at 21c

Love Happens is a Valentine’s-season social experience designed to move couples beyond surface-level interaction and into meaningful connection through art, guided dialogue, and embodied wellness.

💕 Our current art exhibition, The Future Is Female, will be activated with a series of interactive, self-guided conversation prompts based around the artwork to help learn something new about a partner, a friend, or yourself.

💕 The evening is curated and facilitated by De-Andrea Blaylock-Solar, Missouri’s first Black AASECT-Certified Sex Therapist and owner of Sankofa Sex Therapy.

💕 Live flash tattoo sessions are available with Emily Tucker of Alchemy Tattoo Collective.

💕 Massage therapists from Locust Street Athletic and Swim Club will be available for 10-minute massage sessions.

💕 Love and lifestyle local vendor marketplace
