Burning Solstinox II -- Saturday 3/5 @ SOMArts

[geekster]

On Saturday night March 5th 8PM-4AM, your burning friends from across the Bay will converge at SOMArts in SF to celebrate Burning Solstinox, the mid-point between burns. Do NOT miss this one - we ’ll be halfway home!

At last year ’s event, 350 of you brought your theme camps, art cars and flamethrowers to rock the Southbay like it has never rocked before. This year, we ’re taking it to the City. With 5 weeks to go, it ’s time to decide how you ’ll participate in the event sure to keep your playa vibe alive until you breathe that magic dust again.

With visions of our psyche ’s impending chaos mingling with memories of the vault ’s dusty demise, think about how we ’ll turn a little piece of default into a little piece of playa to remind us all of who and what we are. Our theme this year is “Connections ”and we invite you to create some by coming together with us to do amazing things.

We ’ll do this all-volunteer, totally non-commercial, and following the 10 Burning Man principles especially radical inclusion. Sure, there will be live music, DJs, blacklights and bling bling, but so much more. This will be a FUN-raiser with 100% of proceeds going to benefit the Friends of Curtis fund that is working to save an awesome burning musician ’s life and voice from cancer (www.friendsofcurtis.com). The growing list of FUN-raising stations already includes Captain Erotica ’s famous erotic ice bar and lots of radically fun experiences usually available only on the playa. Raffle & auction items will include the most amazing custom playa coat you could ever dream of, but we want more...

We want YOU –we want you involved way beyond dressing up, bringing cash, and dancing till dawn. We invite you to actively participate in creating amazing experiences for others by donating something creative to auction, or performing, or bringing your art, fire toys, art car, or theme camp, or volunteering for a shift on one of the event teams, or whatever it is your wickedly creative mind can imagine. The connections you make participating creatively will change lives forever.

Are you ready to spend an enchanted evening in a rocking Black Rock village without waiting another six months for the magic? Join us to make it happen! Curtis even has a most awesome playa gift waiting for every participant.

Please contact [email protected] to help create another unbelievable Solstinox event, and save the date, 3/5. Stay tuned in a week or so for the ticket announcement with everything you need to know about prices, ordering, place, time, address, and other such. Ciao for now, from the Coalition.

Because you are halfway home!

Burn-ing Sol-stin-ox n: definition

1. The Saturday night halfway between burns, when we are equally distant from two burns and farthest away from any.
2. A holiday of hope, rebirth, love, and the creative thrill of radical participation, when we celebrate playa joys in default.
3. The night your friends from all around the bay will connect at SomArts, 934 Brannan St, SF, 8PM-4AM.

As your psyche switches from its vault of dusty memories to new visions of chaos, spend an outrageous evening in a burning village that will keep that rocking playa vibe alive for another six months. We do this all volunteer, totally non-commercial, and following the 10 Burning Man principles, so radically include yourself and participate! From theme camps to theatrics to art cars, bring it on just like last year, to an environment filled with lighting, art, and a magical trace of dust in the air.
