What:
FIGMENT is an explosion of creative energy. I’s a free, annual celebration of participatory art and culture where everything is possible. For one weekend this spring, it transforms The Midtown Arts District in Jackson, MS into a large-scale collaborative artwork – and then it’s gone.

When:
Saturday, April 28 — 12PM – Dark
Sunday, April 29 — 11AM – 6PM

Where:
The Midtown Arts District is located in the North Midtown Neighborhood of Jackson. FIGMENT Jackson’s central node will be at the North Midtown Arts Center at 121 Millsaps Avenue and will expand into Millsaps Avenue, Wilson Street, and McTyere Avenue as necessary. North Midtown is located south of Woodrow Wilson, west of Millsaps College, east of Mill Street, and north of Fortification St.
