Kids of all ages will want to engage in Figment’s Brush with the Master’s Scavenger Hunt.
On this journey throughout Epcot’s World Showcase, guests will help Figment learn all about art.
To get started, purchase a map and stickers at Creations Shop, Port of Entry, or World Traveler.
Then, search for Figment hiding inside art inspired by famous works at each World Showcase pavilion—just look for the Figment-themed picture frame.
Every time guests find Figment, they add the corresponding sticker to the pavilion on the map.
Once the journey is complete, return the map to Disney Traders or World Traveler for an artful little keepsake! Redemption is valid through Feb. 19 or while supplies last.
