Get More Details:

24 artists from Saugatuck & Douglas joined more than 1,500 other artists in this year's ArtPrize competition in Grand Rapids. Their project, "Re-View: Saugatuck Douglas" was different because it was a collaborative project created to represent both communities (the first of its kind in the competition!). Housed in the lobby of The B.O.B., hundreds of thousands of visitors experienced the 10 foot by 15 foot painting based on a 1970 work by Bill Olendorf.

The project required hundreds of hours from the artists along with a slew of hours from the partners involved with promoting the project.

So what happened? Join Douglas Community Development Director Ryan Kilpatrick, and others involved with the collaborative project, to talk about outcomes for the artists, the partners involved with the project, and the communities. And get a sneak preview of what's next for the 2012 ArtPrize competition!

About It! Series sponsored by Huntington Bank, Bill Hess & Mike Mattern, Bill Underdown–Shoreline Realtors.

ArtPrize collaborative project sponsored by Symbiote-Travis & Sandra Randolph, Zing, Saugatuck Center for the Arts, Douglas DDA, Greetology, and Hungry Village Tours.
