We are open to people from all walks of life. The program is totally free and basic shelter is provided (see the gallery). You need to chip in for food and take care of your own basic expenses (starting with how to get yourself and whatever you want to bring here).

All we ask is that you come with a positive mindset and contribute. This can be done in many ways; helping us build up and tear down, proposing and leading an activity, helping us garden, decorating and making art, bringing useful things (like transport, tools, and fun technologies), or other things we haven't thought of. We are essentially building everything from the ground up and the desert is our canvas. So we want people who are open-minded and excited to help.

We have some limitations on how many people we can host, which are being figured out precisely now. If you are interested in joining us in 2020, please fill out the following form and we'll schedule a call with you shortly after.

Important dates:
* Final application deadline: Nov 1
* Applicants find out by: Nov 15 (Note: if you need to hear back sooner, tell us in the application and we will give you early decision)
