When celebrating the person who dreamt up something as mind-blowing as Burning Man — and then grew it from a small gathering on a beach into a global phenomenon — you gotta pull out all the stops. Join us on July 14 at the Castro Theatre as we joyfully celebrate Larry Harvey’s life and legacy through storytelling, dance, art, video, photography, drama, performance, live music, marching bands, bagpipes, Lamplighters, clowns, freaks and serendipitous surprises. Help us mark the end of an era, as we turn the page to Burning Man’s next chapter.
This is a pay-as-you-can, donation based event. All proceeds will be donated to the Larry Harvey Art & Philosophy Fund, supporting art projects, philosophical endeavors and the furthering of new ideas.
