Interactive Painting at Gate

Gutter

The Burn starts at the Gate! After checking in, grab a paintbrush and come paint on a large community canvas! Let the burn inspire your addition to this collaborative painting- use your favorite principle, burner name, theme camp, or ticket number as inspiration! Don’t miss it- the finished piece will be sent off to the Effigy with the rest of the ticket art to be burnt on Saturday.

LoveLightBox

Saint Joyous, Sonia Dae Slankard, and Phillip Rudder

LoveLightBox is an innovative visual and performance art installation created by Saint Joyous Public Art Partnership. The project utilizes yards of recycled white curtains to create a dynamic screen for casting light and shadow on. The curtains serve as a canvas for various forms of lighting, including projections and solar powered LED lights, to create an environment that envelopes and delights the viewer. LoveLightBox also incorporates interactive shadow puppets to encourage individual story-telling and expression. Join us at Dusk for a shadow puppet workshop!

Sensory science

Harper Webb and Emily Webb

Sensory science is meant to be a fun science and art area specifically for kids of all ages but also fun for adults. There are things like an orbee pool, and a kinetic sand bin for younger kids. Then there are things like body art supplies and coloring books with materials to color with for older people. Some days I will be doing activities like making ublek, slime, other science projects, and group painting. sensory science is going to be decorated with lights so people can come at night as well as the daytime. There will be a carpet laid outside the screened in tent that holds the orbee pool for playing on.
