Welcome to 2021!
This year started off with a fundraising event called Unplugged, a day-long party of acoustic music on the 28th of January. Some of the best acoustic, live performers on the SL grid will gift their tunes to the community on the virtual playa in Deep Hole! Be sure to join us.
Winter Burn brought a whimsical twist with its theme, "Bubble Gum & Duct Tape" - we'll have performances all weekend, art installations and camps all around and no shortage of fun to be had.
Burnal Equinox saw another fun theme, "Roaring 3020s," a futuristic exploration of the exuberant days of speakeasies and flapper fringes.
Conception is coming (July 9-11)! Planning is underway for that, as well as for Burnstock (July 23-25) and our regional's participation in Burning Man's Virtual Burn 2021 (August 29 - September 5). It's going to be a busy summer!
The year's events will culminate with our own "big burn" echo of Black Rock City, Octoburn: "The Great Unknown", (October 8-17), closing that out with a final Skin Burn (October 30). Stay tuned for more on that, too!
