Camp Name: Fire Artists World Cup 2016
Helping out Fire Artists World Cup in the medieval Tallinn
Project
Fire Artist’s Association was founded to raise awareness of Fire Arts and to show that they can be much more then primitive street arts. Association also promotes good standards of Fire safety for Fire artists cooperating closely with local rescue department. One of the largest projects is organizing Fire Artist’s competitions, which started off as a small event for local artists but quickly became the international one. Now every year the International Fire Artist’s Competition takes place in Tallinn, and in coming year 2016 for the first time this event will become the Fire Artists World Cup! The event is organized and hosted in Tallinn by Fire Artists Association, which is a small community not having enough people to be able to get everything done for the event that is growing so fast. This is why international volunteers are invited to help it out. This year the Festival will be held on the grounds of Loomelinnak – “Creative City” in the territory of old factory that is nowadays blooming as an alternative artistic life center of Tallinn, Estonian capital. Come to give your hand and learn everything about Fire and Fire Arts!
