Getting ready for your annual sojourn to the Playa?
Want to share the creativity of Burning Man with fellow Berkeleyans and other East Bay friends?
Then this is your chance! On August 10th from 11am-9pm, Berkeley Spark will ignite Civic Center Park in Downtown Berkeley with a FREE day-long festival of Burning Man bound or inspired art, music, performance, dance, mutant vehicles, vendors and more.
Experience kinetic sculptures and art cars before they head out to the Nevada desert. Dance and live music and DJ beats along with ecstatic dance and silent disco, make art, participate in interactive workshops, revel with local musicians and performers. Spark your Playa preparations with burn-friendly clothing vendors and jewelry designers, light specialists, bike decorating ideas and more. Enjoy local food vendors, and starting at 3pm a beer and mead garden. Inspired by Burning Man's 10 Principles, Berkeley Spark is a place for radical self-expression, inclusivity, transformation and mutual respect.
Volunteer to help make this amazing day of creative community collaboration possible, by contacting Kat Parkin at berkeleyspark@gmail.com. We need help in four hour shifts from 10am-2pm, 2pm-6pm, and 6pm-10pm.
