Burning Man - https://burningman.org/
Burning Man is an annual event in the western United States that emphasizes community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance. The event takes its name from the ceremonial burning of a large wooden effigy, known as the Man, which occurs on the penultimate night. Held at Black Rock City in Nevada's Black Rock Desert, the event follows ten guiding principles outlined by co-founder Larry Harvey, including radical inclusion, self-reliance, and participation. Originating in 1986, Burning Man has grown over the years and attracts diverse participants who design and build art, activities, and events based on an annual theme. Despite its evolution, the event has faced debates over influencer and elite involvement. Organized by the non-profit Burning Man Project, the organization supports smaller regional events and promotes Burning Man culture worldwide through various initiatives.
