Weather cold and rainy? ArtPrize Indoors
News

GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM) - It's the first Saturday for ArtPrize artists to show off their work to the public, and if you were out earlier, you might have run into some unfavorable weather.

Since it's now officially Fall, there's no telling what the weather will bring for the next three weeks of ArtPrize.

But there's an easy way for you to see a great selection all indoors.

If it rains or gets cold, take the skybridge and start at the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel.

Follow the path to the JW Marriott, the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel, and Devos Place, and you'll see 135 pieces of art.

"It will be a different experience than we saw last year because most of the time we were outside, and this year it will force us to venture inwards to see all the art inside," said Jennifer and Tim Schiefer of St. Joseph, MI.

"I'm definitely glad that I'm inside just because of the weather. It's difficult to talk to people and promote your work when you're outside in the rain," said Barbara Weisenburg, an artist from Milford.

Her piece is called the "Blind Side" and is on display at the Amway Grand Hotel.
