No playa required
If there are two things people around the world think of when mentioning Nevada, they're Las Vegas and Burning Man.
With Burning Man having such a deep connection to Northern Nevada, it's no surprise that the sentiments, sights and sounds of the annual event permeate Reno year-round.
In fact, there are several Burning Man-themed artifacts and events here, right under your nose, that you may have not noticed.
So, if you're one of those who is Burning Man deficient — whether it's because you can't make it to the festival or don't want to subject yourself to the challenging conditions of the Black Rock Desert — here are some ways you can get a taste of Burning Man without leaving town. And without hacking up playa dust for a week afterward.
