The Artumnal Gathering in San Francisco, California, is our annual gala celebration and the primary fundraiser for Burning Man’s worldwide public art projects. This success of this spectacular event entirely depends on the generosity of our community. The event features hundreds of artists and volunteers who donate their precious time and expertise.

This year’s event is sold out, which is great news! It means we’re well on our way to our goal of greatly increasing funding for our Global Art Grants and Civic Arts programs in 2016. If a ticket was not accessible to you, you can still offer a valuable contribution and enjoy the event. Volunteer!

Volunteers receive free entry to the Main Event (9:45 pm-Late.) Below are the current volunteer shift needs for the Artumnal Gathering. If interested, please email the Artumnal Gathering Volunteer Coordinator, Moxie, at moxie@burningman.org
