www.BurnCycleProject.com, (805) 688-1086
The Burn Cycle Project and artist Ethan Turpin present Walk Into Wildfire, a free family friendly immersive multimedia exhibit designed to give participants an experiential, proxy view inside a wildland fire. Audiences of all ages can both hear and see how fire moves through landscapes from a rarely seen perspective. This new installation includes recent footage within fires on the Central Coast and wondrous time-lapse video of green, post-fire growth. By having the experience of “being there” viewers have a unique point of view that captures the attention and induces important discussions about fire’s place in nature, fire preparedness, defensible space, prescribed burning, and resilience.

Opening Reception Saturday. April 24, 1 - 4 pm featuring Fire Awareness Resources, Fun Activities, Live Music with Sean & Jaime Montgomery, and Ribbon Cutting. Presented in collaboration with Santa Barbara County Fire Safe Council and The City of Buellton Arts and Culture Committee.
