A Story That's Waited Eighteen Years To Be Told
A tight-knit community gathers every December to ignite a giant wood phoenix, rekindling their rustbelt spirit and fueling the passion of local artists. A diverse group of volunteers persevere through pandemic restrictions, local government negotiations, and months of arduous building to orchestrate a cathartic festival after their absence in 2020.
