Escape The Closet: Pirates in Vegas

Event Description 

Pirates and Bigshots! It’s our time to shine. Join Mycelium as we have the choice of participating in 1 of 2 escape rooms: "Pirates On The Rocks” or “Doomed To Win In Vegas”. We will be going to iExit: a European-style local escape room in Downtown Vancouver with in-house game design, high-quality custom-made props, and advanced technology. There are no scary themes and is language-independent. Participants are encouraged to dress up and roleplay if we feel comfortable doing so. 

Pirates On The Rocks 
“The sailing is smooth, perfect time to look for treasure. While you were grabbing your latest loot, your arch enemy snuck onto your ship and chained the steering wheel! Now you are drifting towards a reef. Will you be able to turn the wheel on time or will you end up as shark bait?” 

Doomed To Win In Vegas
“What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. You got stuck in one of the most luxurious casinos on the strip, and you are in trouble. The slot machines’ computers took over control and locked all the doors. They will not let you out unless someone hits the jackpot. Can you rescue everyone?”

Mycelium Description 

Mycelium is space for queer & trans youth 16-29 across what is currently known as BC, where we gather to center healing, pleasure, and justice in our lives as we envision and create a world liberated from HIV & Hep C stigma. 

We are committed to reducing stigma related to HIV & Hep C and to building communities where we feel safe talking about the highs and lows of sex, drugs, relationships, and all the things that bring us pleasure.

Our team is committed to an ongoing process of learning what it means to do work on this land in a way that brings us closer to Indigenous Sovereignty.
