August 30 – Sept 4
MAPS @ Burning Man
This year Palenque Norte and MAPS are joining forces to produce a lecture program as our gift to the Burning Man community. For those of you who are lucky enough to make it to the burn, we hope you will join us for some of these talks. Our setting is informal, and usually there is time for questions from the audience.
Talks will be held at The Psychedelic Centre in the Snowflake Village on the Esplanade.
