A Wicked Journey

Wicked Eden in Columbus, Ohio

Wicked Eden has become a key player in transforming how we explore identity in Central Ohio. Our space is a call to those who society once labeled as “wicked.” Since launching in 2008, Wicked Eden has been a sanctuary for safe, consensual exploration of personal identity, continually expanding the boundaries of what’s possible in such environments.

Founded by Alexandra Snow, Wicked Eden began as a modest dungeon but has transformed into a comprehensive facility that includes a photo/video studio and classroom, evolving into a sanctuary for community learning for creatives. In 2022, Alexandra realized a longstanding dream by purchasing a commercial building, previously a Columbus public library, solidifying a permanent home for Wicked Eden. This achievement was particularly significant given the financial and systemic hurdles that sex workers often face. On the heels of this purchase was the founding of the Autonomy Project.


We’ve transformed our physical space into more than just a venue; it’s a sanctuary for growth and connection. The Autonomy Project has hosted countless workshops, creative events, mutual aid initiatives, and educational programs designed to break barriers, challenge societal stigmas, and foster resilience. Whether it’s teaching financial independence to sex workers, hosting joyful queer-centered dance nights, or providing critical advocacy training, every initiative is driven by our mission to empower those who’ve been silenced or overlooked.

But our journey doesn’t stop with the events we host or the programs we run. We’re a platform for action. In the face of mounting legislative and cultural challenges, we’ve stepped up to advocate for systemic change, fight against injustice, and build a network of solidarity across Ohio and beyond.

As we grow, we remain anchored to our founding principles: inclusion, creativity, and the relentless pursuit of equity. The Autonomy Project is not just an organization—it’s a movement powered by a vibrant, determined community. Together, we’re proving that when people come together with purpose and passion, we can create a future where everyone has the autonomy to thrive.

Join us as we continue to write this story—one that celebrates resilience, amplifies marginalized voices, and builds bridges to a better, more inclusive world.

Inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do. Operated by and for the queer community, Wicked Eden welcomes individuals of all sexualities, gender identities, and power dynamics. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced enthusiast, our goal is to empower and educate everyone as they explore their personal paths.

We’re committed to creating a space where all feel welcome, valued, and celebrated, no matter where they are on their journey.

In 2023, we went further and founded The Autonomy Project, a 501c3 organization that supports and operates Wicked Eden.

Some strands of feminism believe that all pornographic material is designed to subjugate women and that all sex workers are inherently exploited by the dominant patriarchy. But other branches disagree, arguing that freedom to pursue sexual pleasure in a consensual manner is inherently empowering. Enter the Femdoms, a group of strong and dominant women who call the shots and demand that men revere them, adore them and do their bidding. Oh, and they have to pay for the privilege. Meet Goddess Alexandra Snow and her close friends Ceara Lynch, Sarah Diavola, Princess Rene, Astro Domina and Princess Meggerz. These online Dommes have built a supportive underground scene of fetish content creators, empowering each other, their clients, fans and the rest of the adult population to engage in the fight for a shame-free, consensual, and safe exploration of one’s sexuality. A WICKED EDEN follows Snow as she takes on a new protégé Raevyn Rose and teaches her the ins and outs of her new profession. This is Canadian Director Naddine Madell’s first directorial feature that showcases her unprecedented access into the inner workings of the culture of Femdom and online fetish porn creation. The film delineates the social and political obstacles these women face in building their businesses, all of it in pursuit of an authentic life full of agency and financial independence, just with way more attitude, and a more eye-catching wardrobe, than your average person.
