Preparation
Our team arrived at the festival site a week in advance and immediately began setting up our camp. We cleared the area of garbage, debris, and fallen branches. Then, we repurposed old banners into canopies, providing shelter and adding a unique touch to the setting.
We built benches and tables from the ground up, a labor-intensive task but essential for attendee comfort. The benches offered a place for people to rest and converse, while the tables housed our field kitchen.
I created decorative elements using colored jute ropes, which not only defined the camp's boundaries but also added vibrancy. Hammocks were hung for relaxation, and we furnished the area to make it both attractive and functional for our planned activities.
Finally, we set up a screen for lectures and film screenings, ensuring its placement allowed for optimal viewing. This screen served as an educational and entertainment hub, enhancing the overall festival experience.
