This event is powered by community, and encourages the participation of all our guests as the Thunder Gumbo collective comes together to raise funds for our legendary art cars. immersive and participatory art installations and DIY history!

Mann, the founding matriarch of the Thunder Gumbo arts collective, completed the trans-arctic crossing from Norway to Alaska by lion-sled. Pressure from the evil ice king and queen bent on the destruction of the peaceful Yeti empire did all they could to impede her progress. Yet she and her crew were determined. Some say the Gods themselves raised her team of giant ice-lions, the strongest ever born. It is said that Hephaestus and Thor took turns hammering away to create her sled made of time crystals.  Of course, she persevered. Upon reaching Alaska the world rejoiced!  It was then that Freeezine knew what to do. She invited the world to what shall forever be remembered as the first Freeezine Mann festival complete with a primitive effigy constructed by Norwegian pagans, gogo dancing yetis, sideshow performers, mystics, and the Abominable Snowlympics athletic competition. It was tremendous, with 200,000 attendees gathering all the way at the North Pole. Lovers of the cold, beasts, adventurers, and those proud of this momentous human achievement gathered together. Their love and revelry in defiance of the evil ice king and queen created so much heat the polar ice caps began to melt. They receded to a point that wouldn’t be seen for another 170 years. Time has charged its toll! In a world out of balance, the wise elders of the Thunder Gumbo Arts collective have decreed that in an age of global warming, hot tempers, and potential heatstroke, that the gods of summer need Freezing Man to happen in mid-summer, to bring the planet itself back to balance before the polar ice caps melt and the world’s ice cream supply melts away... F. Mann’s memory as a community leader and pioneer lives on as the founder of our current decommodified non-profit community arts and expedition fundraising event! For the past 170 years, the Thunder Gumbo community has carried on this tradition. Since her death in 1996, a skeletal xylophone constructed from castings of F.R. Mann’s skeleton plays a mournful yet celebratory dirge at the stroke of midnight at every Freezing Man Festival. Come celebrate with us! ❄️❄️Participate❄️❄️ Volunteers: Fill out the form at https://goo.gl/forms/Xmbi5E6rVa0hs4F92 Artists: We are still recruiting installations, performances, and vendors!
