Each year in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert, a city of more than 70,000 people rises out of the dust for a single week.  During that time, enormous experimental art installations are erected and many are ritually burned to the ground. The thriving temporary metropolis known as Burning Man is a hotbed of artistic ingenuity.  Both a cultural movement and an annual event, Burning Man remains one of the most influential phenomenons in contemporary American art and culture.

 
No Spectators: The Art of Burning Man 
brings the large-scale, participatory work from this desert gathering to the nation’s capital for the first time. The exhibition takes over the entire Renwick Gallery building and surrounding Golden Triangle neighborhood.

After visiting the gallery from 10:15am-11:30am, walk 3 blocks to Founding Farmers for lunch.   Members pay for their own lunch.   Unique directions, location requirements etc.:   Meet at TVIH office to carpool at 7:50 am.   Members form their own carpools.  Drive to Odenton to catch the 8:56 am Penn Line train to Union Station.  At Union Station take the metro red line to Farragut North.  Walk 3 blocks along 17th Street to the Renwick Gallery on Pennsylvania Avenue.  Members pay for their own transportation.
