You know all about FIGMENT… You’re ready to dive in… but you still have some questions!  Hopefully the below will answer everything, and feel free to email us at info@figmentnyc.org if you have additional questions.

What are the hours of FIGMENT?
FIGMENT is open:
Friday, June 12:  10 am – 5 pm
Saturday, June 13:  10 am – 7 pm
Sunday, June 14:  10 am – 7 pm 
…in addition, the City of Dreams will be open until mid-October with a large-scale interactive sculpture garden and an artistic mini-golf course. 

Can I bring a car onto Governors Island?
No.  We expect a lot of people to come out for FIGMENT, and all vehicles getting on and off the Island during the event are for artists / event production, and have all been pre-registered.

Can I bring my bike/rollerblades onto Governors Island?
Absolutely!  The Island is very bike/wheel friendly… but you can easily get around by foot or on the Governors Island tram if you prefer.

What if it rains?
FIGMENT is a rain or shine event.  Some of the artwork is indoors, but if it looks like it’s drizzling, you may want to bring an umbrella or remember what it was like to be a kid and play in the rain.  

How do I get to Governors Island?  Where does the ferry leave from?  What’s the ferry schedule?  Is the ferry really free?
Check out our page on Getting There, and all your questions shall be answered! 

I didn’t submit my art/project before the deadline.  Can I still bring it?
We would love you to bring your art and projects.  However, please note that you cannot bring anything that needs to be staked into the ground, be connected to a power source, plotted on the map, or scheduled for a stage or performance area.  The submissions deadline for those types of projects was May 15th.  To have advance notice of submissions deadlines for next year, please join our email list.

How can I find out what will be at FIGMENT?
You can look (and print) an event map and schedule / list of projects and artists from our website in advance.  Because we are a Leave-no-trace event, we will not print individual maps  or schedules for participants.  If you are more comfortable with a map in your hand, you may want to print it out.

Is it really free?
Yes, FIGMENT is 100% free for everyone to participate and enjoy.  We run entirely on donations, and we welcome any contribution you are able to make.  
 
What should I bring?
You should plan to bring water and a picnic, for sure.  For other items, please see our “What to Bring” page!
