LSSC is returning for the third time to Grand Rapids ArtPrize.  The hotel is an ideal location within walking distance from all art venues and restaurants.   Visit Meijer Garden and Sculpture Park.  Japanese Garden is very much worth seeing also. Its only 5.6 miles from the hotel. 

 

ArtPrize is recognized as the most-attended public art event on the planet according to The Art Newspaper, and was recently highlighted in The New York Times’ 52 Places To Go in 2016

For 19 days in the early fall, around 400,000 attendees descend upon three square miles of downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan where anyone can find a voice in the conversation about what is art and why it matters. Art from around the world pops up in every inch of downtown in over 160 venues—museums, galleries, bars, restaurants, theaters, hotels, public parks, lobbies, buildings, walls, bridges, laundromats, and auto body shops—and it’s all free and open to the public.

It’s unorthodox, highly disruptive, and undeniably intriguing to the art world and the public alike.
