The 8th Annual Fire Spectacular

The Fire Spectacular is an annual event that began in 2008 with an art grant from the Sacramento Municipal Arts Commission. The idea was a creative experience based festival that fused multi medium, artistic collaboration with fire dance performance. There were fire sculptures, bicycle art, ecstatic, trance inducing, tribal music, healing, knife juggling clowns, vegan food, and poetic narration all woven into a story that was meant to inspire artistic, creative, self expression, to promote art made with creative reuse, and build a local fire dance based community.

The festival today has evolved into a 1/2 day fire dance based festival, with vendors, live music, performances, and workshops. This year marks a special year for the Fire Spectacular as it comes full circle and we return to our roots. 8/8/2008 at 8:08pm was all about the power of the 8's, facing fear, and living dreams. For 8/8/2015 we dive into the beating heart, sit in silence, and with patience find resonance. When the rhythm catches us, and we are moved, connected as an awakened whole, we will dance to shed our skin, dance to let go, and dance to express the emotions of our journey as a vibrating, pulsating, and radiant, story of embrace, love, and friendship.

Please join us for a delightful and entertaining evening dedicated to the art of fire dance here in Sacramento.
