The Burning Man Experience

The Burning Man is an annual event held in the Black Rock Desert, in Northern Nevada. The event starts on the Monday before, and ends on the day of, the American Labor Day holiday. It takes its name from the ritual burning of a large wooden effigy on Saturday evening.

The event is described by many participants as an experiment in community, radical self-expression, and radical self-reliance. Organizers have noted, "Trying to explain what Burning Man is to someone who has never been to the event is a bit like trying to explain what a particular color looks like to someone who is blind."

On Saturday night we were Invited to the "house of the Future" for a party that was unforgettable. The owner of the house plays a major role in the burning man festival. She put together a circus, burlesque show, dancing, arts booth, music, great food, wine, and unique art all over the house. here a few pictures from the night.
