Figment 2007 in New York City

Yesterday, July 8th, was the first annual Figment celebration of art and creative culture held 10 minutes from New York City on Governors Island. I volunteered to help the group out and it was a blast. Smooth running. However, over a thousand (1000+) people couldn’t get on the island because we were overwhelmed with happy people that wanted to come out. We had writeups in the New York Times, Time Out New York, AM New York, and more. For those that did make it on the island, they had the opportunity to ride metal and tire tread horses, learn African dance routines, get their faces painted, listen to music, dance to electrifying DJs, watch medieval swordplay, admire beautiful artwork and experienced dozens of other projects and activities.
