A community effort to construct a 300-mile wall in one week and
prevent Burning Man attendees from returning to the Bay Area.
About This Project
We want to help Burning Man attendees continue their favorite
week of the year, and allow them to keep experiencing the
genuine community and deep connections they can only feel while
at Burning Man. To do this, we will build a 300-mile wall around
the entire Bay Area during Burning Man.
For the rest of us, what’s normally our favorite week of the
year… lasts forever!
Where Will My Money Go?
We’ll use 100% of the 7.3 billion dollars to buy state-of-the-
art wall supplies. All work will be completed on a volunteer
basis.
Who Will Build It?

You need to be a bit more creative and make it a burning man art
project, call it a burning man canvas and have the burning man
volunteers build the wall for you.... they can even paint the outside
part of the wall. As the art project and it's bring your own paint.
Winning art piece gets to stumble around in a chemically induced stupor
until the week is over or the wall is built which ever comes first.

You! And us. And millions of others who stay on the San
Francisco side of the wall. Through the process of coming
together for one ambitious week of working together, we can
forge a more idyllic Bay Area community. We can return to our
lives as better people. How amazing does that sound?
What Will The Wall Look Like?
The Burning Man Wall will look like this.

What Supporters Are Saying?
“I love the idea of this wall. This wall is going to be a really
awesome wall!”
– Maggie Reed
“All I’ve ever wanted is the opportunity to set my regular life
aside and spend a week being a part of something truly
collaborative, communal, and inspiring. Now I finally have that
chance!”
– Artillery Thornbloom
“It’s moonshots like this that inspired me to start my own
company. Can I tell you about my company?”
– Luke Richards
“It’s idealism and ambition like this that makes San Francisco
so great! Plus, all those Afterburn parties get pretty annoying,
right?”
– Mayor Ed Lee
Risks And Challenges
Building a 300-mile wall in one week will be difficult, but if
we can get just 50% of the Bay Area population (minus Burning
Man attendees) we’ll have about 3.5 million volunteer wall
builders. That’s less than half a foot of wall per person!
We’ve called around to local suppliers and hardware stores and
it seems like we shouldn’t have trouble finding enough materials
to get this job done.
