Today we took the family to downtown Grand Rapids to check out ArtPrize, an open art competition giving away the world's largest art prize ($250,000 for 1st place). Since I work downtown, it has been fun to watch all of the art go up in the city. I wanted to make sure Craig and the kids had a chance to see it. The competition officially runs from September 23 - October 10. However, a lot of the art is on display already. Hopefully we will make it downtown at least one more time before the competition ends. If you live anywhere near Grand Rapids, I highly recommend that you check out ArtPrize. You won't be disappointed!

This statue was made out of toy army guys.

I (Tracey) liked this one.
The artist of this piece (behind Kyle) is from Mexico.
Here is one of Craig's favorite sculptures.
Eveywhere you look . . . . the city was alive with art!

I really hope to make it downtown to see the art with Kyle and the girls. So far it looks great, and what an awesome thing for our area!
