Getting ready for my first official ArtPrize as a Grand Rapidian and came across a few helpful guides as a how-to getting started for first timers.

Thought I would share for anyone who stops to this forum from out of town over the next couple of weeks!

Enjoy!

I never fully figured it out myself. I know if you go to the Art Prize hub (41 Sheldon Blvd SE) the people there can give you all of the information you need to get started, sign you up and all that. My friends and I mostly did pub crawls during art prize and looked at different venues along the way, but I never seriously voted.

Yeah, the hub has all the info.

It's fun to vote. But honestly it's really impossible to see everything.

I stopped voting a couple of years ago, didn't seem to matter since a lot of the crap in the heavily visited venues were voted to the top.

Every year though I go to SiteLab (which looks like the coolest one this year), UICA, and GRAM when it's not busy (during the day on weekdays sometimes helps, or you can become a member of GRAM for special access).

ArtPrize also has a new function this year called "lists" where people can set up their favorites, or you can see which ones the jurors are leaning toward. A great way to see which ones are creating the most buzz:

Artists & Entries - List - Apply to take part in the world's largest art prize. Information, applications and contest details.
