Words can’t espresso my feelings, so excited am I to be living la vida mocha for year two on the playa. Together, let’s make it robust in the dust!

Emily Miller

Excited to caffeinate the artists and participants of the playa! 

Gretchen Fulz

Fancy Air Hostess by day/night and barista off and on since 1986. Lucky number 6th year on playa – I’ll be there to give you a nitro boost of genuine positive energy, and caffeinated humor while supporting art at my favorite dusty home!

I got 99 problems, but coffee ain’t one.

C u on the Playa! 

Poco Joe

Since 2011, PocoJoe’s coffee journey on Playa has been an adventure. From “Shots Fired” beginnings using a Bialetti Moka Express to a manual espresso machine, they’ve brewed joy for friends and campmates during Build Week. The evolution continues with “The Big Drip” and a passion for Cold Brew, changing the coffee game on Playa.

I’m looking forward to my third year serving coffee on playa, while getting the chance to meet the artists arriving and fueling their build.  And in fancy new digs to boot!

Leandra Darcy

With my 20th Burn anniversary approaching, I eagerly anticipate sharing my love for coffee with fellow artists and dreamers. Let’s swoon over art and savor cold brew together during Build Week. See you in the dust, with cups raised high!
