ArtPrize, a 19-day international art competition in Grand Rapids, is slated to return between September 16 and October 3, 2021, according to a statement on the competition's official Facebook page.


Organizers said artist venue and registration dates will be posted soon.

Artists who work in any form from anywhere in the world can participate.

The public votes for the winner. The highest prize is a whopping $200,000 to the winning artist.

"Cheers to the New Year," organizers said. "We can't wait for what 2021 will bring."
