ArtPrize Preview: Taste Dance and Stories | Grand Rapids News

Grand Rapids is alive with art as ArtPrize preview week drops, showcasing over 1,000 entries — the most since 2018 — including powerful pieces like “Red Jeans Redemption” honoring survivors. Beyond viewing, the city pulses with experience: Dance Fest brought performance to Rosa Parks Circle, and CakePrize turns dessert into edible art at The Sugar Bar, blending creativity with purpose during Suicide Prevention Month. Local artists say ArtPrize doesn’t just display art — it amplifies stories, deepens connection, and makes Grand Rapids a more meaningful place to live. Main event kicks off September 18th and runs through October 3rd. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
