The Burning Man Goes Green

Photos by Anne Marie Slater

Think that Burning Man is just an excuse to party? Think again—the participatory arts festival is growing up. This year’s theme was “Green Man,” and during the last week of August 48,000 artists, innovators, and others met in the Nevada desert to explore how day-to-day alternate energy approaches, from algae to solar, can effect long-term change.

	The Man goes up.

	Bruce Voyce and Leanne Barden celebrated their wedding at Burning Man in a moving and playful ceremony.
