Elliot had a remarkable way of creating things people remembered—films, adventures, friendships, moments, and experiences that stayed with you.

On Sunday, October 25, we’ll come together to create one more experience in his honor: a gathering among the people who loved him, remembering an extraordinary friend and the life he shared with all of us.

Please join us for a few hours together in his honor, surrounded by the people who loved him.

The Gathering

Mimosas · Lunch · Memories · Film · Temple

We’ll spend time together sharing stories, reconnecting with friends and colleagues, and celebrating Elliot’s life.

There is no formal program for most of the gathering. We want people to have time to talk, reflect, reconnect, share stories, look at photographs, and simply be together.

At approximately 12:00 PM, we’ll gather for a short film in Elliot’s honor.

A Temple for Elliot

In the spirit of the Burning Man Temple, which Elliot loved, we’ll create a small temple of our own.

We invite you to bring something that reminds you of Elliot—a letter, photograph, written memory, drawing, small keepsake, or even something whimsical—and place it in the Temple during the gathering.

Take home anything you wish to keep at the conclusion of the celebration.

Whatever remains, we will carry with us to the Temple at a future Burning Man and leave there in Elliot’s memory, where it will eventually become part of the Temple burn.

Bring a memory, a story, or simply yourself.

Share Your Photos & Videos

Help us remember Elliot

We’re gathering photographs and videos from throughout Elliot’s life to help create a short film that we’ll share during the Celebration of Life.

If you have photos or videos of Elliot—whether they capture an adventure, a friendship, Burning Man, travel, work, a ridiculous moment, a quiet moment, or simply a version of Elliot you loved—we would be grateful if you shared them with us.

Not everything submitted will necessarily make it into the film, but we would love to see the memories you have.

Upload Photos & Videos

Please upload anything you’d like us to consider for Elliot’s memorial film. Original-resolution photos and videos are especially appreciated.

Come as you are.

Bring a memory, a story, or simply yourself.

We would love to share this time with Elliot’s close friends, colleagues, and the many people whose lives he touched.
