FIGMENT DC at Lumen8Anacostia

June 27, 2013 7:00 pm
Honfleur Gallery
1241 Good Hope Road SE

Please join us East of the River on Thursday, June 27th during Artists’ Week of Lumen8Anacostia.

We’ll be at the Honfleur Gallery from 7-9pm. Join us to meet this year’s team, learn more about FIGMENT, and discuss how YOU can get involved!

Moreover, help us begin our summer long interactive project, “The Story of FIGMENT.” Contribute your stories and drawings and watch the story unfold as each participant adds their piece.

Artists – Submissions are now open! This is an awesome opportunity for you to come by and talk to our curatorial team about the ideas you’ve been dreaming up lately. Questions about what makes art participatory? They can help!

Team Members – We’re still looking to fill a couple of key slots. In particular, we need one more Volunteer Wrangler, and someone to help us coordinate transportation to and from the metro. We also need weekend-of team members – lots of ‘em! If you have a desire to help, please reach out and let us know!

Creative Types – We know not *everyone* considers themselves an artist, even though they should. So this category includes YOU! FIGMENT is open to everyone, and everyone has a gift to share. A smile, a game, a really cool invisible cape.”

Ed. Note: You can see all events here and you can schedule your own event listing here.
