Walking Tour of ArtPrize 8 2016

Hard to believe that ArtPrize will be wrapping up soon, if you haven't had a chance to walk around and see everything, here are a couple of home movie style videos that feature a lot of the art and experiences of ArtPrize 8.

The final vote for ArtPrize will be cast this Thursday night at 11:59pm, after that downtown will be less busy.

You know, I forgot how busy downtown gets during ArtPrize. Especially my building, for some reason we're one of the few tenants left in our building. Which is strange because it's an ideal location in downtown. Yet, we have the building (mostly) to ourselves most of the year. The exception being ArtPrize when it's the hub of volunteers and activity. Lots of people getting on the elevators, walking around the lobby. Not to mention the addition of new artwork. The garden under the stairwell blew me away the first time I saw it.

Not sure why.

Anyway. Much love to ArtPrize.
