We are excited to announce a year-round partnership with Oakland Park and
Recreation!  OPR has been with us since the beginning, and is co-hosting
our October event. We are thrilled to be supporting our community by
working with them!

We are now spearheading a monthly children's art program starting next
year. We are looking for FIGMENT artists and classroom volunteers to teach
arts and crafts classes to future creators!

If you would like more information on how you can bring the joy of
creativity to the youth of Oakland please contact Rick Abruzzo
