Event Description:
DC hosts 3-4 Burning Man for Beginners workshops each year for new burners who want to go to burning man. We cover:
○ The 10 Burning Man Principles
○ Finding a place to camp ahead of time (Theme Camps, or not)
○ Tickets / Early arrival Passes
○ Packing Lists
○ Bikes
○ Traveling to the West (Driving vs. Flying)
○ Getting to the Black Rock Desert
○ Entering the city (Gate/Will Call/Greeters)
○ City Infrastructure
○ City Services (Rangers/ESD/DPW/Center Camp)
○ What Where When
○ Burning Man Lingo
○ Burning Man Fashion
○ Burning Man Regional Events, E-mail lists, Happy Hours, Burner Houses, and other local community
We are quite clear that we can’t answer all questions during this time, and instead hope to instill a sense of the Burning Man life to attendees, while sharing the places to connect into the burner community and find out more about what they’re interested in.
