You have arrived at the Media Mecca Sign-up page.
Media Mecca is your home within a home. We have a great Happy Hour
that keeps getting happier. We have plenty of media friends to meet
and assist. We will have tours, the panel, and other special
events. We have cool shade, cool water and cool friends. That, of
course, means you.
If you are a new volunteer, sign yourself up as a Wrangler. You'll
be helping to greet the Press, hand them a cold one, tag their
cameras, and give them their contracts to sign. We'll have a
training in Early August to get you up to speed.
You'll notice on this sign up sheet that there are spots for both
Wrangler/Art Liaisons and Art Tour Volunteers.
As an Art Liaison, your job will be to be knowledgeable in the art
projects happening at Burning Man. In addition to helping Media
sign in, you'll be a "go-to" person on hand at Mecca when a member
of the Press wants more information about the art. There will be a
special session on Monday of the Burn where you'll familiarize
yourself with the art installations. If you sign up for the Art
Liaison role, contact katie@burningman.com for more
information.
Art Tour Volunteers will be helping Katie, Ryan, and Peter out with
the Art Tours on Wednesday and Thursday. You'll help with cat
hearding the press onto Nautilus, getting them to "sign-in" and
you'll be on the ground logistical support for making sure the
artists are ready to greet the media.
