Saguaro Man 2026 ~ Succulent Dystopia

Saguaro Man is a multi-day desert campout where you bring your own food, water, shelter, and supplies—and step into a temporary world of art, music, workshops, and experiences you didn’t know you were looking for.

Burning Flipside

Burning Flipside is a participatory art celebration inspired by Burning Man. Since the first event in 1998, when a few dozen friends got together for a campout near Austin, it has grown to become a temporary city of about 2-3,000 people. With an extensive all-volunteer organization that makes it run, there are numerous ways for anyone who wants to be a part of it to get involved. At the same time, it has become the nucleus of a year-round community that meets regularly to socialize, work together on projects, and discuss the event’s direction.

Burnal Equinox WNY

Burnal Equinox is a one-night threshold where the Burning Man community in western New York awakens from winter hibernation and turns back toward creation. With DJs, dancing, and emerging artworks supported through artist grants, the gathering becomes both ritual and revelry. It marks a liminal kickoff to the summer burn season, rekindling connection, movement, and shared imagination.
