Donation Based Membership

Membership at Polaris is 100% Free. We just require your support of the art and services provided through a tax-deductible donation that supports the transportation of Polaris, it’s improved sound system and further support for our incoming resident DJ artists, and interactivity.

You will receive a tax-deductible receipt at the end of 2022. We thank you for your support of Polaris, which your donation directly supports through maintenance, transport, lighting software, recruitment of DJs, new sound designs, and new seating on Polaris for the bottom and top floor, as well as safety maintenance.

Because your early payment ensures that we can solidify the structure of the camp, there will be no refunds after July 15, 2022. If a refund is requested, there is a $75 fee for cancellation prior to this date.

Applications for new members are CLOSED for Burning Man 2022.
