Temple of Transition at Burning Man 2011- Rites of Passage

Vancouver has been honoured this year with the privilege of serving the Burning Man community with direct involvement in the inception, design, and build of this year’s official Burning Man Temple.

The Temple Of Transition is a dream about to be realized in the Black Rock desert. An international crew based in New Zealand, Ireland, UK, America and Vancovuer, BC, Canada. Formally known as the International Arts Megacrew,our primary objective is fundraising to meet the expense of building the temple. The local contingent will have bodies in Reno for the pre-build, will be building one of the five stage of life altars locally and sending a crew to Black Rock City for the assembling of pre-built pieces. Our motto is Built in Reno, Burnt on Black Rock.

Come out and celebrate the momentum of this historic New Democrat campaign.

We’ve never been closer to the Canada we want. One where families come first, and no one is left behind.

Together, we can do this.
