Houston

Houston burners are a scattered bunch, much like the city we call home, spread over hundreds of square miles of the freewayed swamp that is our city. Half of the Burningman attendees are probably unaware that Texas has had its own local event(s) for five years, now, the other half are lone souls or clans that make the trek thinking they are without fellow travellers, while yet another half are busily conspiring with their Dallas and Austin cohorts to make the Temporary Autonomous Zone a year-long reality... To that end, we encourage any and all lone Houstonites to rally to the cause. and drop us a line! We know you're out there, at the Art Car Parade, in the suburbs, behind that desk. come out and play!
