Living Pavillion Exhibition Opening

I've mentioned before that the beginning of my summer is marked by the annual FIGMENT Festival on Governors Island.  In June, I take the ferry over and marvel at the views, the fields, the art and the serenity of it all.  At that time I swear I will find excuses to make frequent trips back to the island.  And by the end of summer, I decide that at least I made it out once.

Well, now I have the perfect excuse to return.  On August 2nd, there will be an opening for the Living Pavilliion Exhibition on the island.  Erected for the FIGMENT festival, this sustainable structure offers shade and a gathering place for visitors.  The opening will showcase the design and construction process. 

One of my photos will be used as part of the exhibit.  It's quite thrilling.

If you haven't been Governors Island, take the opportunity.  You can find out more about the event here.
