Presenter application
Leather Leadership Conference wants you (to present)!
For over 25 years, LLC has strived to create a space where leaders in the Leather and kink community can learn, develop, and hone leadership skills. To make this possible, each year we strive to bring outstanding leaders and presenters to the convention to share their knowledge and experience. Hopefully, this is where you come in.
At LLC, we strive to offer presentations designed to support the leadership within the kink community. We hope to offer the necessary space to bring leaders and members of our communities together to learn and grow. LLC is always seeking classes, intensives, and workshops that will help our attendees grow and strengthen their leadership skills. The theme for 2027 will be "Leading with Hope" so we particularly encourage presenters to submit proposals supporting that theme, and are seeking presenters who represent diverse backgrounds of experience, perspective, and community service.
This year, we are also launching a Diversity in Leadership track of classes. We are seeking classes that will help new and emerging leaders develop foundational leadership skills and that support, enhance, or focus on the changing landscape of leadership within the community . If you believe you have a class that would be a good fit for this track, please indicate that with the checkbox accompanying the class description on the application.

One Class Selected:
1 free registration and 1 night stay at host hotel (Friday/Saturday)*
Two Classes Selected:
1 free registration and 2 night stay at the host hotel (presenter may select between Thursday-Sunday)*
