BUILDING COMMUNITY. BRINGING ART. CAMPING IN THE WOODS. BURNING SOUP.

Burnt Soup is a burn event occurring over Labor Day weekend. Our goal is to foster community growth and self expression through the creation of a Temporary Autonomous Zone inspired by Burning Man and defined by its ten principles

Burnt Soup has no budget at this time. All fees spent at the entrance gate go to the venue itself. As with all nascent events, some money needs to be spent up front in order to fund art and infrastructure. Without these things, the event can't go. We need your support!

BURNT SOUP 2014 BUDGET NEEDS
- Building Materials for Temple
- Building Materials for Effigy
- T-shirts / Identification for Volunteers
- Soundstage Equipment and Lighting Rental
- Other Infrastructure Supplies, Incidentals and Etceteras

WHAT'S THIS ABOUT TEMPLE *AND* EFFIGY?
That's right - we're burning twice! We were able to get our hands on the remains of an old, unburned effigy from a different event. Like a phoenix, parts of that piece are being re-worked and re-birthed into a new effigy that will burn on the Saturday night of Burnt Soup. On top of that, we're building an all-new temple structure that will provide a calm, contemplative space for participants to enjoy. We'll burn the temple on Sunday.

Images of the planned effigy and temple structures will be posted here soon.


(This is NOT the effigy, but ain't it purty?)

WHO WE ARE
The Burnt Soup organizers are a small group of burners from around Texas. Most of us are veterans of Burning Man, Burning Flipside, and many other regional burns. Our aim is to make Burnt Soup a friendly, loving, well-organized, and safe event.

We value openness and transparency. All financial records for the event will be made available for review to anyone who asks. In other words: you can rest assured that your donation will go where we say it should go!
