ARTPRIZE 2011
by muffy
If you are not planning on attending THE Game or the obligatory tailgate and would like a bit more elbow room on Saturday, you could do a lot worse than getting in the car and heading west.
ARTPRIZE turns the city of Grand Rapids (Michigan) into an art gallery for two weeks every fall. Billed as "a radically open competition", it opens today and will run until October 9. As an international art contest solely voted on by the general public, your votes are essential.
Here is how to vote, and a map to help you navigate all the venues.
The 10 finalists will be announced on Thursday, September 29, and the winners on Thursday, October 6.
The helpful folks running the show have put together some visitors' info. Make good use of it, including the free shuttle.
