BURNING MAN
About 70,000 dreamers and radicals migrate to Nevada’s Black Rock Desert to create a temporary metropolis dedicated to community, art, selfexpression and self-reliance. Leave the wallet at home as the gathering (it’s not a “festival” as such, as there are no scheduled events) is famously cashless and encourages participants to embrace the spirit of “gifting.” August 25 to September 2 burningman.org
