Center Camp Decor Manager

Description

Burning Man’s Center Camp Team is looking for a Decor Manager!

What is Center Camp?
Center Camp rises each year as one of the biggest and brightest stars in the Vault of Heaven that is Black Rock City. Center Camp offers an acre of art in the cool shade, tons of benches, couches, cushions, and carpets to kick-back on, and some of the finest entertainment available. This beautifully decorated structure is the largest intergalactic convergence at Burning Man. A favorite stop for every participant, parade, mutant vehicle, marching band, and green alien, a visit to Center Camp is a great initiation to the event as a participant or a volunteer.

What are we looking for?
A dynamic and empathetic leader who has an educational and practical background in multi-medium decor and design who has project managed a themed design from start to finish. This person can create design elements based on the unique attributes of Center Camp and has the ability to work with a limited budget for materials and thrives in a collaborative environment.

Note: This is a volunteer position working in the Bay Area and Black Rock City.

What are some of the skills required?
We are interested in individuals who have been to Black Rock City multiple years and particularly with experience and skills in the following areas:
Previous experience in a collaborative role on playa
An educational background in design
Create and manage a council that collaborates on design ideas
The skill to manifest a stunning design for a 38,000 sqft structure
Collaborate among multiple teams to execute this design
Troubleshooting potential issues
Community outreach to source design materials
Familiar with Google Workspace

Where do we need help?
This role will require proximity to San Francisco, CA as well as Black Rock City, NV. While most work will be able to be completed remotely, some will require procuring design materials and dropping them off at the San Francisco Warehouse. Expect to arrive in BRC Friday, 10 days before event opening day, then working until the Tuesday after event opening day, where your job will then conclude.

How can you apply?
If this sounds like a good fit, please send a resume to cory@burningman.org
