T-Car
T-Car is a family of makers from different walks of life. We’re wanted to build the camp we enjoy immensely ourselves and are happy to share it with other burners who are looking for a place to relax and catch a breath. Our camp’s theme is Tea and serving it to wanderers of Black Rock City in our camp accompanied by workshops, hookah, eastern sweets, and temporary tattoos!
T.B.C.
T.B.C. is a collective of like minded individuals creating new experiences and pushing the limits of art, love and interaction.

Tantra Mantra at Anahasana
Tantra Mantra is a camp dedicated to the transformation and transcendence of the human condition. We integrate ancient esoteric teachings of tantra with modern self-development techniques to create a unique environment for experiences that prepare the ground for evolution. To envision and prepare the world of tomorrow we need to rewire our nervous systems and free ourselves from the old paradigm. Tantra is an accelerator of evolution. The collective ambition towards freedom present during Burning Man is unique. It erases differences between individuals and supports the Tantric effort of transcending all false dualities. We leave a great place for spontaneity… Expect the unexpected.

The Anti-Social Social Club
Everyone is welcome at the Anti-Social Social Club — especially the loners, misfits, lost toys, wallflowers, first-time and solo burners. As a healthy mix of veteran burners and virgins, we understand that Black Rock City can be an overwhelming place, one where you can be surrounded by people and yet feel completely alone. Think of us as block parents for the burn, a place to pop your head in looking for a friend, a chill place to get your bearings or seek some advice on how to find your unique version of “radical participation.”
Our ethos is one of inclusion without expectation; we’re here to support each individual burner in finding their best burner vibe.
The Big Red Toolbox
Black Rock City Hardware Shoppe will be on-site with a variety of tools and supplies to help build or repair just about anything on the playa. We are proud to have spent over 20 years serving Black Rock City in this capacity.
We have hand tools, power tools, nails, nuts, bolts, tape, string, wire, paint, bike tools, automotive tools, glue, rivets, and whatever else we can manage to fit on the truck. We enjoy helping people work on art projects and helping camps who have suffered structural difficulties, but we also help with minor automotive problems, generator issues, and fix an inordinate amount of bikes. Whatever people bring us, we’ll try and fix if we can.
the black hole
Home of the Black Rock City Gate, Perimeter and Exodus staff. It’s not actually as bad as you’ve heard, but it is at least occasionally worse. We are really trying to work on our manners and impulse control, but just understand it’s a process and that we’ll reach that rainbow one day! You may already be a member and just don’t know it yet. C’mon by and find out.

The Church of the Open Mind
Burning Man 2017’s theme of Radical Ritual spurred us to create a Mutant Vehicle, a radical rolling church built on a truck frame floating around the desert with a mushroom-topped spire… The Church of the Open Mind! What a journey…
We built our Rolling Church with a large tower emerging out of the Spire. This marks the visual centerpiece of our mutant vehicle — a vividly colored, radically-illuminated mushroom. It stands vibrant, 30 feet up and visible from afar. This Mushroom on a Church, The Tree of Life or A Light in the Sky; we invite all interpretations.
In 2018, we brought The Church of the Open Mind back to Burning Man brighter than ever, and we look forward to seeing you in 2019!

The Folly Crew camp is the rest and play zone for The Folly builders when we’re not out in deep playa. Come say Hi! Evenings probably best.
The Fountain (of youth)
The Sacred Song Teahouse is a temple for devotional singing on the playa.
There are many traditions of devotional singing, sometimes known as bhajans or kirtan, which help to quiet the mind so that the heart can open to the divine, allowing us to taste the blissful reality that is our true nature. Rather than being a performance in which the audience listens to musicians, it is a participatory spiritual practice in which everyone is encouraged to sing and express their inner joy.
The Sacred Song Teahouse is a Burning Man camp dedicated to creating and maintaining a serene temple oasis for joining our voices and diving into the Divine… together. We welcome the keepers of tea wisdom to join us in our temple space to sooth our throats with their mystical infusions. Together we create Magic!

We’ll also be gifting BFF necklaces so you can share the love with your life long mate or your new playa bestie.
Be sure to participate in our pen pal exchange program and make a new burner friend from the midwest.

Throughout the years, our camp has regularly cared for citizens of the playa who wandered into our inviting camp. We love to provide cool water, a shaded place to rest, a listening year or whatever our new friends might need to recenter and recharge themselves. This year, we want to make it official and create the “FriendZone” as a safe place for any citizen who might need it.
The Hand Lovers Lounge
The Avant Yard has been a theme camp since 2008 but our founders first tasted dust in 2006. We are affiliated with the Arts Diaspora, an international network of artists, healers and do-gooders who meet once a year at Burning Man to produce art, connect with new Gnomies (members of our community) and find new ways to empower each other to do wonderful things.
The Heart Collective
Heart Tribe is a heart-centered, touch positive group providing a Healing Sanctuary to the Playa. We offer a variety of healing modalities in a beautiful squishy space to bring people into their bodies and hearts.
During the Burn Week, we open our Healing Sanctuary 4 hours each day and welcome people in to receive healing sessions on a first-come-first-served basis.
We’ll also be offering non-alcoholic elixirs and a variety of hydrating, tasty delights served at our Nourishment Lab, with the aim of leaving you feeling better than when you found us.

The Last Starfighters
Greetings, Starfighter. You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the playa against Xur and the Ko-Dan armada. Your dedication to building interactive art in a place so inhospitable is the challenge you have accepted. Clearly you have always wanted to fight a desperate battle against impossible odds.

The Phage
The Phage is an homage to the vast dark ecology whose foment gave birth to Earth’s living diversity. These ubiquitous viral life forms evolve faster than any other life on earth.

Tim's Place
In an age when society is trying to bottle and mass distribute authentic experiences, we’re trying to offer something else. Too many parties are marketed as “transformational.” Our camp doesn’t think metamorphosis is a brand you can purchase, it’s up to you to find something magical. But we’re happy to offer a place to do so.
For one week out of every year, the world renowned Black Rock City operates a temporary and immediate community known as Burning Man Culture & Arts Festival. Our mission is to create a sound camp that showcases the most innovative and immersive ideas in audio performance, interactive art installation, stage design, and community planning within a unique space that offers stimulation to all five senses. You may even discover a sixth.

Tortoise Town is a melting pot of individuals from all corners of the world. We provide a space & transportation for burners who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to bring their creativity and unique spirits to the event. Our camp hosts greeters, lamplighters, artists, DJs and contributers who eagerly share their talents and skills with the entire community. The cultural diversity at Tortoise Town exemplifies the ideal that we can all cohabitate and create an even more beautiful world together, not despite our differences, but because of them.
contributions made to the Burning Man community at Tortoise Town takes shape in the form of food giveaways, Trampoline Park and Games Corner, and other workshops to be announced!
Tower of Slackjaw
The Tower Of Slackaw is an interactive art piece/observation tower shaped vaguely like a spaceship or a virus. The 60 ft tower is absolutely stunning and has serves as a beacon for many a burner, to find their way home in the outer 3:00 sector, Along with being an exceptional vantage point for photography and observation, WE provide a unique space to converse with real people from around the world. Sun rise and sunset are stupendous. We have bicycle parking stands, lots of dust and some the best views of the Burn and surrounding mountains, this side of the Pecos. Open 24 – 7, we are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the First Folks on the Moon and the 71st anniversary of the the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights with the dedication of the tower as Transquility Base.
Toxic Disco Clam
In the default world, the Toxic Disco Clam is a real aquatic creature. It uses its luminous lips to attract passing fish… and then it immobilizes them with acidic snot. We’re pretty much the same: we draw you in with dazzling lights and entertaining activities, we ply you with our intoxicating beverages, and we hope you never leave (we promise less snot).
Tragic School Bus
Campy Camp dedicates itself to daily activities for all BRC campers and supports the playa’s unabashed queerness by offering visitors regular summer camp-themed events and experiences that help them sense a place of inclusion, entertainment, and of course the opportunity to earn merit badges — BRC style.
