Ignite!
Nestled in the mountains of Virginia, Ignite! Is a 4-day camping event that lends itself to activities around acculturation, community skill-shares, and education, in addition to the dancing, laughing, shouting, playing.

Wicked Burn
By day, the forest hums softly—sunlight filtering through pines, art tucked between mossy stones, canvases hung in the trees, and strangers becoming collaborators, then community. By night, the woods transform: glowing installations pulse among the trunks, firelight flickers across faces, and sound drifts through the leaves in waves; this is when we bloom.
Wicked Burn is an inclusive community that ignites creativity, self-expression, and community inspired by Burning Man’s 10 Principles. Rooted in Maine’s rustic woods, it’s a collaborative space for art, personal growth, and shared experiences. We are committed to inclusivity, sustainability, and leaving a positive impact while celebrating the transformative power of participation.
