Welcome to the BLACK ROCK ART FESTIVAL, aka, "THE BURNING MAN FESTIVAL," a temporary city of over 50,000! It is held annually during the last week in August, ending on Labor Day with "Exodus," the great dispersal of all participants. What is Burning Man?
This will be our 4th Zondernaam Camp, a Community Closet and Chill Space ("Zondernaam" means "no-name" in South African Dutch). So far, we have enjoyed three years of participation (2006-2008) at BRAF, and look forward to making it better every year!
The Chill Space is interactive most of the day and evening, being a place of refuge and healing. Shade in the daytime, black light and solar Tiki lights at night, and supportive, loving beings to hang with and share blessings with. There is always extra food, and jazz/lounge/techno music is the background. Music is not too loud and is played during the day and evening. Sage is our fragrance, and meeting new kindred Burner Souls is our joy.
The Community Closet is a daytime clothing rack positioned next to our mailbox on the street that is filled with crazy trippy shiny sexy clothing items and accessories (refreshed daily) for those who need something special to enhance their Burner Experience. We put men in skirts! Throughout the year we accumulate special clothing items and then when we are "at home" we can help other burners maximize their fun. Our motto is, "Take a piece, leave a hug!"
