Monday Night Family Outing

Every year in Grand Rapids, they host an art event called Art Prize
Many people submit their work and the public votes.  
The winner gets the worlds largest art prize of $250,000.

On Monday night, Millie and I met Cason after work downtown.  
We ate PB&J's for dinner in the Rosa Parks Circle and then walked around town looking at the amazing art.  


Mad.  Probably because I wasn't feeding her an apple fast enough. :)




Here are a few of the pieces we saw. 
-Gerald R. Ford: statue made out of fiberglass, resin and bronze
-Reflection of a fallen soldier (looking at this one almost made me cry)
-Under Construction: construction workers spray painted bronze
-eye picture: made out of many little pictures.  When you step back you see the eye.





It was a great night to get out on the town and see such amazing talent. 
Hope you had a good Monday night family night too. :)
