We're guided by the Ten Principles of Burning Man. Our mission is to promote arts and culture in ways that lift the human spirit, address social challenges and build a shared sense of culture and community, for our members and the wider community.

Wherever we gather, build and celebrate, we're on Country that has been cared for by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for tens of thousands of years. Sunburnt Arts honours the Traditional Custodians of these lands and waters, and pays deep respect to their Elders past and present. Their stories, songs and care for Country came long before ours. We come to each place as guests, with gratitude, and we leave it as we found it, so it can keep holding its people for generations to come.

Sunburnt Arts has been established to continue the legacy of the Burning Man Project for all Australians.
From humble beginnings at a small gathering of artists and collaborators, our annual event - Burning Seed germinated over a decade ago.
Our organisation is made up of passionate and talented volunteers who are committed to making a difference through the arts. From our Board of Directors to our event crew, everyone at Sunburnt Arts is dedicated to creating a vibrant and inclusive arts community. To apply for membership of the organisation please click here.

Our community sits at the centre of everything we do. Seven portfolios work around it, each looking after the teams that make our gatherings happen. Every team has its own contact, and all addresses end in @sunburntarts.org.au. There's a place in the star for everyone.
Sunburnt Arts is run by a volunteer board elected by our members. Each director leads a working committee in their own domain, and our domains overlap by design, so committees share people, skills and ideas across portfolios. That cross-over keeps the teams motivated and inspired, and it means no part of our community runs on its own.
