I had a wonderful evening at the Women’s City Club for the opening of ArtPrize 2014. This place was hopping with many art lovers, artists and media. It was so exciting to see the exhibit complete and also to meet some of my fellow exhibiting artists. I wasn’t terribly surprised when I learned that the two other artists I clicked with immediately are also photographers showing in the same part of the gallery as me. I really have a feeling that this year at ArtPrize is going to be the best yet.

ArtPrize hub sneak peek pics
The months of September and October are always my busiest of the year. I am just coming off of a week long photo shoot for the company I work full-time for, and this morning I was tying up some loose ends downtown.
I took the opportunity to take in the preview opening of the ArtPrize hub which was from 9-noon. My daughter came with me, and together we took it all in. A large store, early voter registration, free cider and donuts along with a gallery showing of the last two ArtPrize winning works of art… It was a lot going on in a small space, and it was excellent.
- The ArtPrize hub is at 41 Sheldon SE in Grand Rapids, MI.
- The line to register to vote was not too bad.
- The store space is larger than ever.
- Free cider and donuts!
- My daughter loved the donuts. I loved the cider.
- Entrance to the gallery.

- The pop up park is complete out front of the hub.
