Partnering with local government agencies can be very helpful to FIGMENT events in several ways. It is a way to gain community support, act as a bolster when applying for funding from various sources, help access to local government resources/connections, and also to assist with FIGMENT venues (in particular when the venue is a public area).
In various cities, FIGMENT has partnered informally and formally with a variety of government entities including those representing public spaces and arts.

Contact David Koren ([email protected]) if you have any questions or want to partner with FIGMENT.
