ArtPrize is a global art phenomenon that brings people together through the power of creativity and connection. For 18 days, art is showcased in various venues, including galleries, museums, public spaces, and storefronts, creating a vibrant and immersive experience. The highlight of ArtPrize is the prize itself, with over $400,000 awarded directly to artists through popular and juried voting.

In addition, ArtPrize supports participating artists with annual grants totaling over $200,000. Rooted in its inception in 2009, ArtPrize has continually evolved and grown. This year, ArtPrize has partnered with The City of Grand Rapids, Downtown Grand Rapids, Inc., and Kendall College of Art and Design of Ferris State University to enhance the event and make it even more accessible to the community.

The focus is on celebrating amazing art, engaging the public in voting, offering big prizes, hosting dynamic events, and spreading joy.
