We are bringing in Indigenous voices that carry the reverence needed to conduct this installation with the utmost respect for the land it sits on, the people that have inhabited it and the tradition they practice. We are seeking to subsidize the efforts of bringing these select individuals to the playa as much as possible so their valuable presence is not exclusive to their personal resources.

**A shared sacred hearth forming a living center for warmth, conversation and prayer.**
 
*Gathering around fire.*

*A community practice as old as human history itself.*

*A place of warmth. A place of simplicity. A place of depth.*
 
**We all share a deep history and primal connection to communing around a flame - whether it be a candle at dinner or a camp fire with loved ones - consciously or not, you have been cultivating a relationship with the Grandfather spirit.** 

**This is an invitation to gather around a flame to learn and celebrate a deeper connection with the history of fire through shared company, storytelling, ceremony, music and supportive programming.**

Fire Circle will be activated Sunday to Sunday, from sunset to sunrise, with a series of offerings taking place around the fire three times a night. A team of experienced fire tenders will be present at all times to facilitate a dynamic, safe, welcoming space. 

Found on the 6:00 axis in deep playa, in energetic alignment with the Center Camp, The Man, and The Temple.

This installation carries the intention of honoring the land on which Burning Man takes place and acknowledging the deeper histories that exist beneath Black Rock City. The project features a focus of creating a space where Indigenous wisdom, practices and ways of being can be heard, respected, learned and integrated into a modern context.

Burning Man often embodies values of participation, inclusion, gifting, stewardship, radical self-expression, and communal care - principles that have been practiced within Indigenous cultures around the world for countless generations. The Fire Circle ethos is to bring further harmony between the principles of Burning Man and the anthropology of our collective past. 

In alignment with this year's theme, Axis Mundi, Fire Circle serves as a node for Black Rock City to tie into a global network of communities: a place where ancient ways meet the contemporary world in the spirit of respect, reciprocity and shared experience. Through the simple act of gathering around a shared fire, the installation invites participants into a lineage of human connection that transcends geography, culture and time.
