Nectar Village aims to be a village that is dedicated to providing personally oriented services (gifts) to all of Black Rock City. Our leadership and member camps have a deep history in providing deeply interactive camps.
The Heebeegeebee Healers have a classroom that drew over 7,000 BRC citizens last year and a healing space that performed over 800 one-on-one healing sessions in 2007. Costco provides a personal service that will connect folks with their soulmates. The Steambath Project has a Finnish steambath running almost 24/7. Bumblepuss is the organizing camp of Nectar Village and is providing many infrastructure related services, as well as working in the HBGB healing space. The Fermented Collective will be providing and performing all of the village’s art.
All of our camps have highly interactive activities. From HBGB’s classroom sessions that run 8am-10pm (including Yoga, energy healing, deeksha, meditation, massage, Monkey Chant) and HBGB’s 1-on-1 sessions with body and energy workers, to Costco’s 1-on-1 soulmate counseling and matching, there is the Steambath project that will accommodate 10 individuals at a time for a Finnish Steambath. The Leopard Martini Lounge plans to host happy hours and a party or two. Bumblepuss offers performance art and crazy antics. And, the art of the village is provided by the Fermented Seeds Collective.
The village is a day-time oriented village. We will have activities starting daily at 8am. Scheduled activities will run through about 10pm. We expect to have over 50 entries in the What, Where, When, based on a review of prior years. The fire art will likely run from dark until midnight or 1am. While the fire art will draw a crowd and have some music, it is not intended to be a big party, and we wish to respect the rest needs of our campers, most of which will spend 4-6 hours everyday, working the interactive parts of the village.
