The Burn Cycle Project and artist Ethan Turpin present Walk Into Wildfire, a family-friendly immersive multimedia exhibit designed to give participants an experiential, proxy view inside the belly of 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. The public is welcome to join us for an Opening Reception Saturday, April 24, 1 - 4 pm featuring fire awareness resources and speakers, fun activities, live music from Sean and Jamie Montgomery, along with an official ribbon cutting. This exhibit is made possible through a collaboration with Santa Barbara County Fire Safe Council and the City of Buellton Arts and Culture committee.
