Get Yer Burn ON(tario)!

The Burning Man website says,

Once a year, tens of thousands of participants gather in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert to create Black Rock City, dedicated to community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance. They depart one week later, having left no trace whatsoever.

It is hard to explain just how wonderful and horrible dancing in the dust can be. But for the 358 other days a year those same passionate, artistic, resilient people form communities around the world and are finding ways to bring the beauty of the playa back to the default world. This website is a vital communications cog for the tribe of like-minded Ontarians that want to keep that energy growing until they might make the 4,000 km trip to Black Rock City to be a trip to their own personal mecca.

Ottawa, Toronto and London all have strong communities of Burners who have great ideas in mind and taking bolder steps everyday to make them happen.

Burn On!
