I've always toyed with the idea of going to Burning Man but I'm turned off by how popular (read: the big, comfy trailers and the stratification of attendees) it has become. Is there a retreat that still is all about art / society-in-a-box?
- chrisgat 8y agoI'm not a burner, but I've worked with several. There seems to be local community burner gatherings that are less well known unless you are part of the community and probably have the vibe are you seeking.
- jvagner 8y agoI don't go to BM, but my teenage son does (with his mother). His mother and her BM crew make some of the big art you see pictures of every year. They think it's still great.
- acomjean 8y agoI never been to either, but the burners in my area also go to firefly. There also are a variety of burning man associated events at other times. https://www.fireflyartscollective.org https://www.fireflyartscollective.org
- egypturnash 8y agotype "[your state] burn" into your favorite search engine, you'll find smaller events with a decent chunk of crossover with the people who are serious about Black Rock City.
