Discover Island of Lost Buoys's Art and Design

Help Us Rebuild the Island at Burning Man 2025!

The Island of Lost Buoys isn’t just an art installation—it’s a surreal escape, a place of laughter, connection, color, and calm in the middle of the chaos. After a dusty hiatus, we’re ready to bring it back to the playa—bigger, brighter, and more buoyant than ever before.

But we need your help to make it happen.

To transform this floating mirage of oddball buoys and beach bliss into an even more immersive experience, we’re raising funds for critical upgrades and new magical touches:

• 🏖️ New Shade Sails – Bigger, more vibrant, and essential for daytime chill
• 🌴 Palm Trees – Because every island needs its flora (even in the desert)
• 🌈 Colorful Lighting – Solar-powered, playa-proof, and beautifully weird
• 🔊 Ambient Soundscape – Gentle waves, distant steel drums, buoy bells—pure sonic joy
• 🏝️ Upgraded Beach Padding - New foam materials and beach sand and ocean colored covers
• 🧼 Repair & Rebuild Materials – Wood, fabric, hardware, paint, LED kits & love

- Paint & decor supplies 🎨

- Solar LED strands 💡

- Shade sail materials 🧵

- Audio & speaker system 🔊

- Palm trees & lighting zone 🌴✨

- New  Beach Padding Cushions w/ Covers 🏝️

- Wear and tear upgrades and repairs 🛠️👷‍♀️

The Island of Lost Buoys is a symbol of joy, absurdity, and sanctuary. Whether you’ve found your way there in the past or hope to stumble across it this year, your support ensures it returns to inspire and delight.

From the bottom of our sandy, salty hearts—thank you.

See you on the playa. 💛💞💛
