This past fall, I had the opportunity to attend ArtPrize in my hometown of Grand Rapids, MI. As defined on their website, ArtPrize® is an open, independently organized international art competition that is hosted by over 200 venues throughout downtown Grand Rapids. It is the world’s largest art competition, and 2016 marked its 8th year in existence. This year, event branding and design was on my mind because I was on the home stretch of designing the collateral for Phoenix Design Week collateral, and the ArtPrize 8 event branding was absolutely stunning.
