Figment is an arts project that is all FREE.... it is geared towards adults and kids... it is about making awareness in the community and bringing people together without spending a bunch of money and still having a great, if not one of the best times of your life. This weekend I was apart of what was called "Hello 100" which was a dance created by Bex Burton to be performed at Figment by 100 hula hoopers (which it was), and it was amazing to be apart of it. I probably would not have made it to this great event if I had not particiapted in it. Needless to say I am glad I got to be apart of this weekend at Figment and to be able to experience not only the awesomness at Figment but also at Govenor's Island which was also really cool in itself. The island used to be for the U.S. Coast guard but now it is used for festivals and concerts, a lot of the island is historic so it can't be knocked down so investors aren't interested in it, unless they can build casinos or amusement parks. The island is 2.2 miles and you can bring your bike, have a picnic and there is also an area at the end where they have a fake beach, drinks & food and you can do all that while looking at some unique views of the Manhattan skyline.
