Connect with other participants, ask questions
and start your planning!
Create content
There is no content unless you bring it to Vårlys yourself. You are welcome to bring projects & gifts to share with the community, small and large.
Placement
You are encouraged to bring art, activities, content, workshops or theme camps to Vårlys. But - you might not want to have your meditation camp right next to a sound camp. That’s where placement comes in.
The placement team will look at the land as a whole, and divide it into suggested areas. There might also be existing structures that could be used for projects. Placement can never guarantee that a quiet zone is quiet at all times and so on, but they can advise on the layout that could create a good flow of content.
As of now we are still looking into the path for this years Placement process, but there might be an application/information form for project to fill in - so that the Placement team can point out good areas. By informing Placement your project could also have the option to be visible on the event map that all members receive before the event.
Remember, you don’t need to have all the details figured out just yet to create magic. A burn is a bit like life, a rough plan and a lot of improvisation along the way.
Questions about Placement? Ask the Placement-Team on Discord #placement
Dream Grants
The Dream Grants process is a system where a portion of the total Vårlys budget is allocated for members' dreams - to help participants co-create.
Dreams are projects or content you are bringing to Vårlys. Add your dream to the platform to get feedback, find co-creators, source materials, apply for funding.
All dreams can be added to the platform, even if they are not asking for co-creators, funding or materials.
The deadline for publishing your Dreams is APRIL 15 at 23:59. It’s time to start dreaming!
You can always contact the Dream-Team on Discord channel #dream-grants
Volunteering
To make the event happen, each and everyone of us contributes by doing volunteer work, either before, during or after the event.
You can read more about the different volunteer roles here!
Each volunteer role has a separate Discord channel. Stay up to date about shifts and other important information posted there.
Everyone signs up for shifts. The shift schedules will be published closer to the event! Sign up for several shifts, and contribute to more volunteer roles too!
