These convenings have sparked innovative ideas, leading to events like Streetopia in Cape Town, South Africa, and inspire civic action that benefits greater causes, as seen with the impactful projects supported by the Burners Without Borders Civic Ignition grants. Connections like these are the foundation of a stronger, more unified global community. 🤝 Delve deeper into these transformative stories and explore one of our latest Journal articles to see how these gatherings are creating ripples of positive change. ✨ Read more here: https://lnkd.in/g6Vdzf7h #burningman #blackrockcity #brc #10principles #thankslarry

☀️ Happy Solstice! ☀️ Thirty-eight years ago today, on the Summer Solstice, Larry Harvey and friends ignited a tradition by burning a Man on Baker Beach. This event sparked an annual ritual that has evolved into a globally influential cultural movement, now thriving in over 30 countries with the support of the Burning Man Project nonprofit. We extend our gratitude to everyone who contributes to bringing Burning Man to life. Together, let's continue to gather, create audacious things, and share the stories of our spirited adventures as we build the future. #thankslarry

In August 2021, we published our Radical Inclusion, Diversity, & Equity Anti-Racism Pledge. We set some short and long term objectives, and asked: What would it look like for Black Rock City and all of our global communities to be more radically inclusive and diverse? A year and a half later, so much has happened — members of the community have stepped up to build art pieces, create theme camps, write stories and produce videos, and perhaps most importantly, share the best of our culture and bring new faces into the fold in Black Rock City.
