2026 FYRE Media Justice Camp – Stand Up, Clap Back

Applications are OPEN: CLICK HERE to apply to this year’s FYRE Camp!

This year’s FYRE Media Justice Camp theme, “Stand Up, Clap Back” invites participants to explore themes central to the fight for Reproductive Justice and liberation, using stand-up and storytelling to amplify their voices and visions.

During Camp, participants will create a tight five, also known as a 5-minute set, that spotlights one or more of the following: Queer and Trans Liberation, Healthcare Access, Trans Justice, Autonomy, Sexual Liberation, and Abolition. Deep diving into the pivotal themes of reproductive justice and liberation, using the camera as a powerful tool for expression.

Participants will also engage in political education, guided by local organizers both within SPARK and beyond, immersing themselves in the critical work of reproductive justice.

SPARK is seeking participants who reflect our base: Black women and queer/trans young people of color, ages 18-35.

FYRE 2026 will be hosted in Atlanta, GA, but applicants from anywhere in the south are welcome to apply! Travel and accommodations will be covered for all selected participants.

APPLICATIONS ARE DUE MONDAY, MAY 22ND.

We will be sending out our decisions by Monday, May 29th. The virtual one-day camp will take place preceding the camp, and the in-person camp will take place July 16th-July 19th.
