I am delighted to be taking part in ArtPrize, a city-wide visual arts festival and
competition in Grand Rapids, Michigan that runs from September 24-October 12.
I will be in Grand Rapids for a week, installing 1001 coffee cup artworks,
my largest cup art installation so far!
Then I will be drawing in the window of my venue for five days, September 24-28.

It turns out that prepping 1001 cups, not to mention just counting them all, is a big job!
But it is done, the artwork is boxed up and I am hitting the road tomorrow morning
for a long drive West.
If you will be in Grand Rapids for ArtPrize, or know people who will,

Prepping 1001 Cups in the studio in NYC
proved to be a monumental task! |

Yes! They fit into just four boxes.
Telescoping is the way to go.
I will be driving the artwork out to Michigan myself. |
