FIGMENT Boston returned to the Rose Kennedy Greenway this weekend. The participatory arts festival brings collaborative and artwork and activities to the park through do-it-yourself stations set up along the Greenway pathways. This year is the 7th year for FIGMENT in Boston, the first satellite city after its founding in New York on Governors Island. Funding for FIGMENT comes mostly from donations to the non-profit FIGMENT organization.
