ArtPrize in Grand Rapids

This isn't in the Greater Lansing Area, but it is still worth checking out. This is the second year for ArtPrize.

ARTPRIZE: Grand Rapids, Sept. 22-Oct. 10; www.artprize.org. Most artworks are on display in a 3-square-mile district of downtown. The nearby Meijer Gardens is the only one of the event's seven major exhibition centers outside that area. Finalists - including the top 10 winners chosen by the public - are announced Sept. 30. The winner is announced Oct. 7.

PLANNING A VISIT: The ArtPrize website and iPhone app are two quick ways to check out entries and artists ahead of time or during the event, look at maps and vote. Once voting starts, a randomized top 25 list will be available, and a list of other interesting works or hidden gems will be updated.
