Burning Man – August 27 – September 3 – Black Rock City, NV

Estimated read time 9 min read

Burning Man is much more than just a temporary community. It’s a city in the desert dedicated to radical self reliance, radical self-expression, and art. Innovative sculpture, art installations, performance art, theme camps, art cars, and costumes all represent forms of artistic expression on the playa. Elements of the abstract and surreal are everywhere as long horned steers and cans of Spam rise from the desert floor that surround the Man and the Temple.
