Greetings Fireflies, As you know our in-person festival is canceled this year. While we can’t gather in person, we are organizing a Virtual Firefly event that will include virtual spaces to explore and interact with art and other Fireflies, some Firefly events and traditions adapted to virtual spaces where possible, and other offerings made by the community! Virtual Firefly will occur over Thursday, July 1 - Sunday, July 4, 2021. This is an official Burning Man regional event reflecting the Ten Principles https://burningman.org/culture/philosophical-center/10-principles/ and the Firefly Code of Conduct https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/firefly-arts-collective/firefly-polici... . There will be a Firefly map and navigation environment that will visually reflect the land where Firefly is held each year (for the experience of wandering around in the woods or field). The main gathering spaces and events will be hosted or linked on Firefly’s Topia (for example, a camp’s Zoom space could be linked from Firefly’s Topia). This event will be what we all make it. Please join us in making Virtual Firefly possible! - Place a Camp or virtual art https://forms.gle/gxcLKBbVBLaYMo2r8 - Submit an event https://forms.gle/zWak99RM1K6FfmVB7 - Express interest in volunteering https://forms.gle/SJLPG5pv5E17mwhRA - Learn more about Virtual Firefly here https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/virtual-firefly-2021-info/ More information is available on the following topics on our Facebook Event https://www.facebook.com/events/168565625281349 and on the Firefly Arts Collective website https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/virtual-firefly-2021-info/ See you in the virtual woods, Yaycat (Carly Nix) on behalf of Virtual Firefly Committee
